First class, I cannot wait for that moment of ecstasy achieved when tearing off the wrapper on a new book.

Talking

I just came back to my office from a meeting and found a box of catalogues on my desk!

Antonio, it is gorgeous! Well worth the wait. Since I could be accused of bias, I'll let others comment more fully.

Thank you again for the opportunity to participate in this project.

Mark,

I am glad you backed up through Shadow of Leaves, and that you liked it.
Thank you and everyone who so generously participated. (bowing)

Got mine from the Shadow of Leaves. Had time only to glance through the pics: highly professional. That's how to photograph swords!

Default Caution

If you order this through the Macau site http://www.555555.com.mo/shopping/index.jsp?lang=E , (which is the cs@kongseng.com.mo Antonio mentions above) be a little careful as the checkout process appeared to reject my order three times this evening but I now find I have been billed three times for the book. I dont know why this has happened and I am not suggesting they wont sort the problem out for me (fingers crossed) but watch out. I guess the worst outcome is that I will have two spare copies of the book.
cheers

Have you emailed them? If so, always have to write in very simple English.

Problem is I advertised that it was available for sale at Shadow of Leaves for quite some time.

Have you registered? Is your computer on a broadband? Would it time out?

Don't lay the blame on me Best of luck
