Knotty Posted 2 July , 2016 Share Posted 2 July , 2016 Trawling through N&M Press and found this book "Ribbons,Medals and Regimental Badges" a 2014 reprint from a 1917 original, soft back in b&w with colour plates,nothing to surprising until the price tag £799 - really. Long a collectors item it says, thought it was a mistake but if you add to basket it still comes up as £799, what's your thoughts on the cost, excessive?

Lancashire Fusilier Posted 2 July , 2016 Share Posted 2 July , 2016 22 minutes ago, Knotty said: to surprising until the price tag £799 - really. John, Obviously a misprint, and should probably read 7.99, as that is the current price for this reprinted book on Amazon and Ebay, with many available. Regards.

Knotty Posted 2 July , 2016 Author Share Posted 2 July , 2016 johnboy, LF et al Yes, I realised and hoped it was a misprint, but I would have thought the price would have changed when transferred to the purchase basket and showed the correct amount, it was a bit of a. tongue in cheek way of trying to emphasise that it didn't and would carry on and take that sum from your credit card if you were not on the ball. I have emailed them to let them know my (and hopefully others) concern.Will get back with their answer. John Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
