Things that irk Andy #9377
Oct. 25th, 2009 12:02 pmI would quite like to buy the new book "Whole Earth Discipline: An Ecopragmatist Manifesto".
However - for reasons that don't make any sense in the third millenium - the book is available in the US but not in the UK. Meaning O _can_ get it in the UK, and for most people it would cost the same - but not through Amazon directly, just through a third party, meaning that Amazon don't get paid for it and I can't get free shipping (which pushes the price up for me).
So, wait until January, or pay an extra £2.75. I don't think I like either of those choices.
