So to re-purchase all three volumes will cost the best part of £120?? Feck!
As much as it'll hurt the old wallet, I'd still prefer the hardback editions - I just won't be able to get them all at once as I originally planned. :(

Can't say I'm keen on having them sent all the way from the U.S. either.

Could it not be another of those where we liaise on here and do a bulk order to get a possible discount on postage? I'm sure ten copies, sent via a slower freight type mail could cut costs a tad?

Just a thought.

You're willing to pay an extra £20 for hardbacks? I'm not.

The hassle is having to start all over again for the paperbacks. But then that template should be universal, ie US customers can get theirs manufactured in the US, German customers can get theirs manufactured in Germany, etc. as it was supposed to be, the whole bloody benefit of a company as big as Lulu was no overseas shipping costs.

The one good thing about moving to Paperback will be larger pictures. As I have to start over either way I don't know if I should release the hardbacks anyway, or scrap them all together.

how much cheaper is the softback version? I cant imagine shipping would be a great deal less?

do you have to start over if we have a hardback version? or just the softback...

The paperback version of Best Of v2 is £32.02 plus £3.75 P&P.

It looks like they've fallen out with their UK hardback manufacturer.

oh. sorry to go on but does the hardback version require work to get it uploaded to their site?

I just really really would prefer a hardback version and I know there are a lot of other people to consider here but if its ready to go cant we just upload it? And if there is work to get the h/b version ready can I help with it?

I know the shipping is a lot but if people were to buy a few (I would be buying all three) then surely the shipping would only go up slightly, making it a better deal...
