It is pretty clever, but it would be nice if Jonathan could oblige with a copy of the text though

Default I say spend the money

I say spend the money, 150quid is nix in the bigger picture. I certainly spend more money that I care to think about on book titles found within these pages and others...I actually don't think I am far off obtaining almost every titile mentioned here, the books are worth than any weapon could be in my opinion. If one is serious about learning, this is what has to be done, sometimes you just can't sit and wait for free handouts.

How right you are Gav .. the number of collectors I know who are too mean to buy a £30 reference book .. but will waste £100 on an item that is wrong !

That sounds like a rather recent learning curve to me. Perhaps a contradiction to your above statement? & What was all that pleading about it bieng an expesive book & wanting me to scan it for you?

All deliberatly malicious & missleading whichever way you look at it, actualy I am surprised the managment tolerate such behavoir.

p.s.
My repley to the the false & malicious allegation by simon Hengly of Tora kukris can also be found on the linked thread.

I agree David, Sadley I felt I have to defend myself against such malicios allegations though. After all this has been going on here & other forums ever since I left Simons personal forum several years ago.

Thank you for your time.
