I think Pete had one for sale a few days ago?

Yeah i was thinking of selling it. The problem is is this book seems completely unavailable and i only got one valuation which i wasn't that comfortable going with. It's an item i love owning but given that i am turning my room into a part office space i've had to clear out a lot of stuff so this was something i considered may have to go. But if i did sell it i'd want a good price for it to help with the sleepless nights after it's gone.
I searched every ebay i could think of for listings and completed listing to get some idea of what it may be worth now given it's apparent rarity and could find nothing. I think i'm gonna wait till i see another one come up for sale to see if it's worth me selling it. If they go for £40 quid i don't think i'll bother but i have a hunch one of these could now fetch more than double that.
 
June you can contact the author directly here - http://meccano2trilogo.com/ He may still have some reprints (the original only sold out last year or the year before..six years after it was published - food for thought for anyone wanting to publish a book!)

Stephane is a good guy though and if he has some copies/reprints available he will get one out to you.
 
And if he can't help you, just keep your eyes open. They do pop up from time to time and are quite affordable - http://www.ebay.com/itm/STAR-WARS-MECCANO-TO-TRILOGO-GUIDE-2006-VINTAGE-JEDI-YAK-FACE-Free-Ship-World-/261058983875?pt=US_Action_Figures&hash=item3cc853f7c3&nma=true&si=zMBVIUHoQxPfO5LqKz6r4aSTMyw%253D&orig_cvip=true&rt=nc&_trksid=p2047675.l2557

When? Recently?
 
I got a signed one from Stephane about 6 weeks ago. I contacted him on the email address in Joe's post. I can't remember exactly but I think it was between £30 - £40 shipped to the UK.
He said he had a few copies left but that was around November/ December time.

Yea so £42 from a shop signed is good IME. ;)

Bloody hell was it really that long ago! Seems like a year or two since I bought it.
 
Stephane has only 3 more reprints available if anyone wants one guys, I spoke to him yesterday.
