I've bought one. The shipping is really a little expensive (IIRC, you'd pay less for an order to Japan than one to South America). However, if you order enough books, shipping gets rather acceptable. In Brazil, books (below ~$300, IIRC) won't pay customs, but,as the others, I don't know anything about how it is in Argentina. -- ~~~~~ Gustavo Eulalio ~~~~~ guga@guganet.8m.com ~~~~~ ~~~ "Quando escuto, esque=e7o.
