I've tried for twice to order this book through this site! They never answered me. :S So, please, anyone contact me, if you can get me an exemplar near a library of yours... I didn?t find this book in amazon.co-uk...
thank you for your attention.

yes, Paul. I tried in that UK version page, of course. I filled the formulary twice!!! and didn?t receive any answer. I mailed to them twice... and no answer, 2 weeks ago! How can they sell books if they don?t attend the customers??
So I ask if someone can get this book in a library. So, PM to me. Thank you.

The order scheme is a little confusing. Your fill the form and they send you a proforma invoice by e-mail. The first time, I didn't see it and it went to the spam box. The second time I saw it, gave my credit card info and got the book in about a week, which is normal for the post between Nederland and Paris.

So, plz, check the spam box for your email and see if it ended up there (before I make myself impossible at the publishers ;)).

wow thanks, Nikita, Pierre and Paul.
Nikita - hmm... thank you! And from England! ;) the Colorado in url could get wrong idea about the real origin of the site. :)
It has small differences:
--- 14794 The European Families of Flies (Diptera) Oosterbroek, P.; Jong, H. de, Sijstermans, L. ?40.00 KNNV Buy
is it the same book? The original title is: "The European Families of the Diptera - Identification, diagnosis, biology" (i suppose that the answer is yes :) )
Pierre - er.. I erase my spam mail everyday in gmail account... so, I never see spam BOX. .. there are about 50-100 msg per day in spam box.
Paul - As I said to Pierre, no possible now... all spam mail was erased in the morning... I use gmail account. Thank you for your help.
If the book of Pemberley site is confirmed, I will buy through that site. It is from UK - so it is safe (i don?t pay any tax customs).
Thank you.

This ([url]http://www.merlioshop.co.uk/cgi-bin/pemberley/info.pl?item=14794[/urlThis ]) is the same book and roughly calculating with the conversion from pound sterling to euro the price is similar.

If someone could tell what sender address it is you could add that to your gmail contacts to avoid it being labeled as spam ...

The sending domain should knnvuitgeverij.nl but I guess that does not matter anymore now.

I presume the order is handled manually (at office time) as I didn't get an instant email reply when I ordered it late last night. Don't have access to that mail box right now so I can see if it was sent after 7:30 this morning.

Does anyone know if the invoice mail comes directly or is it handled manually? As I said I sent it late last night and still haven't got the reply mail and I've check the spam. I could try the other bookshop, but I don't want to pay for two books. However, if the dutch site should send a late mail I guess I don't have an obligation to pay ... or!?

Hello,
In my opinion, this is handled manually. The person who answered me the second times asked whether I wanted a second copy. That means that she does that herself and that she notices the customers for the time being (we whould not be that numerous).

Ok, thnx Pierre. I tried using the form twice with different email addresses, but no reply so far. I emailed directly the address on their homepage today. Let's see if I they bother to reply.
