Plants,
and money is no object, Dingley Home and Garden has it available for $200.00
Australian. You'll have to mortgage your house if you want to buy a copy of
Charles Darwin's Carnivorous Plants from them! :-) (for anyone curious
they're asking $2,000.00)>

I bought my copy of "Carnivorous Plants" only several months ago, from the
MIT bookstore (the publisher of Slack's U.S. edition). I sent an e-mail to
their web page (the URL of which escapes me at the moment) and they informed
me that they had at least one (perhaps more?) good quality display copies
remaining. I picked it up for $30US plus $3 postage.

You might want to try this approach. (other then a small fade line near the
spine (from where it must have lay in the sun for a while) it's in mint
condition.)
