Anyone else having trouble? Anyone know when the ebook version of v.30 is coming out?
The only version available here in the UK right now would cost me over £16 (about US $28) which is kind of excessive especially since I was hoping to get it on kindle anyway, having just bought my first tablet (a kindle fire).

Gator,
I mean Elinor,
I suggest e-mailing Sarah about that one. I see it's just not available for you in the UK, which makes no sense.
I wish I could beam the kindle version to you. From what I understand, the words are the same in the US as they are in the UK.

There's two salesladies over there. In the past I've had a fun conversation with either Sarah or ... well I've deleted the e-mails, so I don't remember. But she exists, really she does.

Thanks. I think I'll send 'em a mail.

We can't have V30 in Greece either, as I already mentioned in another thread.
But someday...

It seems insane that you can't just buy it electronically. All our technology and there are still these silly limitations.
I wonder, if you say visited the US, could you get things from amazon.com? Or would you also need a US bank account or card to draw from? Then again, there are Amazon gift cards... But they might be coded too. What a pain.

It looks like Amazon.com will take my credit card for paper books, but for kindle books in place of the "Buy" button it just says "Kindle titles are available for UK customers on Amazon.co.uk". The kindle doesn't seem to be out yet anyway.
I've tried buying epubs before from Barnes and Noble but they certainly don't take UK credit cards.
The paper copy from Amazon.com is marginally cheaper but of course there's the long wait and worry that it might not arrive at all. (My problems getting paper copies of Asimov's here in the swamp are infamous). So I'll probably get it over here, or just wait and hope the ebook arrives eventually!

Elinor,
If you (or anyone else) ever needs me to act as a go-between, I'm happy to. I have free shipping with Amazon to me, and I can package and mail overseas. We can work out reimbursement through Paypal, which converts easily between currencies.

Thanks, Dustin, that's kind, though for now I think I'm just going to wait a bit and see what happens. I'll get a copy eventually I'm sure!

On the other hand they do have a UK site at http://www.nook.com/gb/ though so far as I can see Volume 30 has not yet arrived there.
You will however be pleased to hear that there is no waiting list for the work of another master story-teller.

Are there no limits to the depths to which this man will sink?

A GB Nook site!! Yay! Thanks for that, Ish. That must be new, never seen that before, not that I really need it now I've got a kindle fire HD.
In other news, the cost of the WotF pb version has plummeted on Amazon uk so that's not so bad. I'm still holding out a bit though in hope of getting a kindle copy for my nice shiny new kindle...
