This are marketing rules. As far as I know the only source for getting
Lowrie's Vol. 1 is Colin Clayton at Triffid Park, a CP supplier in
Australia. I met Colin Clayton last July and he has a number of new soft and
hard cover books. But you have to pay 1000 AU$ for one copy!
This is the current price for that book. I asked him: who is willing to pay
so much? and he said that japanese are good customers...
Nevertheless if you are on the way to Australia you can try to negotiate the
price directly and perhaps you can obtain a cash discount! ...sob...
