If you order it from me, you can save a few bucks and get
better-than-average service.

I'm charging $39 _including_ U.S. shipping, vs. $42.45 from the 
publisher, allow you to order conveniently by e-mail, and save you 
from having to deal directly with the publisher (which can be a big 
or small advantage, depending on the particular publisher -- no 
comment on which it is in this case; try it with a bunch of them 
and see for yourself). 

(Yes, you $40 people who already ordered are being re-priced at $39 
when your books ship and you are finally billed.  We're decent 
folks here!  And your books should arrive any day now!)  

We'll need your Visa or Mastercard (only) number and expiration 
date, mailable delivery address, and, to the extent they exist, 
e-mail, fax, and day and evening phone numbers.  THIS IS IMPORTANT!  
People almost as smart as you have accidentally given us impossible 
(there's a check digit) credit card numbers, phone numbers with 
exchanges that don't exist, and street addresses but no city.  
Protect yourself by giving us as many ways of reaching you as 
possible!  My re-selling your home phone number is about as likely 
as your re-selling mine (which you have, by the way, so please be 
courteous about when to call; I'm on the West Coast). 

We're happy to take overseas orders if you're happy to pay the 
shipping.  We charge an averaged rate of $9 by sea (but expect 
arbitrary delays beyond actual shipping time of up to 4 additional 
weeks, by both countries' postal authorities, to encourage the use 
of airmail) or $17 by airmail.  

We also sell the official (by NeXT) NeXTSTEP Developer's Library at
an even more attractive price (thanks to a bigger discount from the
publisher); please inquire if interested.

Regards and happy programming,
 - Irving
