For purchasers outside of the UK, it may be worth looking at
www.bol.com. (Then Hit UNITED KINGDOM icon .. I cannot find a quicker way). They have all the usual AR editions, incl. Red Fox. E.g. the max P&P for an order is GBP 8.50. I usually order at least GBP 70, so this is v reasonable. However, a word of caution, BOL may be a little erratic in charging your credit card (tending to throw in an extra P&P GBP 8.50 in multipart deliveries ??), so perhaps it is better to send a sterling or $ cheque for the whole order, and NOT give a credit card number. Also they don't seem to reply to complaints. You have been warned. Enjoy.
(B) BOL seem to have some obscure books that Amazon.uk dont have (& no doubt vice versa), I got a jolly intrstng book on Lake District Railways-hrs of fun ! Then I got the Lal' Ratty book from their own website-another good read!
