I never knew these books would be worth so much!  Surely that shows there's still a lot of demand for them?  Maybe someone wanting them should inform the publishers, maybe there's enough demand out there in the book buying public for them to run off another edition.

Meryl,
 are you sure? I can only find one for £75!
:-(

Meryl's post referred to a different book "Wall of Water".

I did mention this to them some time back and they said that it had been considered but there were numerous problems with gaining permission from the copyright holders of the various photographs etc.

The cost would be prohibative for what would probably be a small print run.

The book itself isn’t worth that sort of money - and the only one I’ve managed to track down is with abebooks.co.uk and that’s £75 + p&p!  But that’s because a) it’s a hardback edition with dustjacket (as opposed to paperback) and its rarity - plus, I would think, the seller wants their cut to.  If you wanted to sell one - such a company would be unlikely to buy it from you at anything like that price!  The company obviously hopes that someone, somewhere, will pay their asking price!
