Did you try Google? Amazon? I just checked #3 on your list and found it for $11.53 without any effort.

Google is your friend.

With the price of the dollar right now, it might be cheaper to have them shipped from the US. Overstock.com has Supercade and the Price Guide; they've also got The Ultimate History of Video Games- that book is full of all kinds of great geek info and highly recommended. I have Supercade too, it's a great coffee table style book.

#1 and #2 are at my local public library.  I just borrowed #2 a few days ago.

Cheers,
