Newbury bargain thread (and bargains in general)

[Son-of-a-Weizen]

They, too, stopped shipping internationally!

This is a very, very uncool development!

Well that doesn't mean that you shouldn't share with us the titles of the little goodies you must have discovered during your recent search, right? Fret not, we'll help you get a few items if you need 'em.

I already forgot...

Also I just noticed my post from last June... I forgot about that, too.

Most of us here probably already have this, but hell, at this price, buy a copy for a friend or loved one!

I know we have a separate box-set bargain thread, but upping this one to mention that Kathy Sloane's book about the Keystone Korner club, which comes with a CD of live performances from the club, is currently selling new for $6.90 + $3.99 shipping.  It's a $40 list price title, and an excellent volume about the club's history (full disclosure: I'm friends with editor Sascha Feinstein, who also selected the tracks for the CD--a daunting task, as you might well imagine):

Keystone Korner: Portrait of a Jazz Club

Thanks for the tip!  My copy arrived today, and it's a beautiful book!  Kathy Sloane is a very talented photographer.

Thanks for the heads up.  I ordered a "used" but unread copy from Amazon, and also stumbled (Amazon style - they suggested it) onto a similar book by Leo Sullivan about Birdland, which I also ordered.  The whole bill with shipping came to $16 for the two books, and I used rewards points from my Amazon credit card.  Looking forward to both!

With $8 left on an Amazon birthday gift card from last month, I also pulled the trigger on the $6.90 new copy which is now somewhere between Atlanta and Tampa. Thanks GoM.

It's a great book.  I got it for Christmas a few years ago. 👍
