MG MGA - Original MGA Clausager

I realise that this book is going to be re-printed, but there is an original for sale on Ebay 150454224304...not for sale by me BTW!
Gary Lock

Ebay uk advised me a week or so ago that the new print would be in stock about 17th June.....
Neil Ferguson

Amazon Uk now have the item in stock at 30 pounds ....tis the end of speculation and obscene prices....
Be intersting to see if the one on sale on Ebay oz gets above the equivalent in A$...about $50.
Neil Ferguson


My mistake it was much cheaper ..it cost me 22 pounds (about A$37) plus postage ....
Neil Ferguson

By the way I also saw you can no consult it GoogleBooks. You can read some of the pages and search... so it has been digitalised.

Pretty cool!
However not all the pages are available. : (

I just received an email from Amazon saying that the pre order of the book will be available from the editors until July 17 (this year)!!!

Seems like no-one wants to wait for a 2nd. edition, as an original has just sold for A$112.50 on Ebay.
Gary Lock

There is another explanation that is less complimentary...I have noted a rash of MGA books on Oz ebay incl this one. There is another for sale in a couple of hours....plus other scribes.
Unless you want old paper for its unique slightly smelly yellow self and enjoy other peoples thumbmarks then the new edition is about $45 delivered..so that should be max bid. I believe the rash ( rush? ) is by folk who have sat on the books awaiting greater spoils and now realise they have a last chance to find a d..k.
