Ordering the Book:
John Dougill says,
“Books for friends and family in the US, the UK and Australia can be shipped cheaply and in time for Xmas.
- Warning: shipping to Japan can be expensive. Expedited Shipping (the default Lulu setting) is around $68.00!! However, if you choose the option of standard shipping, it’s only about $8.00 for the shipping (which obviously takes longer).
It’s easy to test the various cost options on Lulu because you do not pay until the final button. Lulu also runs various types of discount at fairly frequent intervals.”
