Invader Rubikcubist Book, by Lroy on Feb 25, 2023 16:07:03 GMT 1, That’s Arter Chomsky that gave you the link :-)? They have a lot, it’s in my town ( just bought mine this morning ), and they told me that the books are quickly sold. I don’t know if they will ship for Foreign countries, anyway this shipping will be awful for USA ( 66 euros as the book’s weight is 2 kilos ). Le Grand Jeu is saying 89 euros for Australia. Shipping fees are made all over the world ! Somebody mentioned Sold Art wants 89 Euros for shipping the book to Australia. I am not sure how much Le Grand Jeu are taking and I can´t find the book listed on the website, but from my past experience the shipping costs were much cheaper than what Sold Art was charging in the past. You seem to mix up Le Grand Jeu with other companies often. I only have great experience buying from them and don not think you can compare them to Sold Art or Fnac. Yes I apologize for both ! I always make confusion with SOLd'art and Le Grand Jeu, I don't know why, it seems for me the same shop.. Maybe the location, maybe the funny names...
Fnac is a trust as Amazon.
I saw Gibert ( big bookstore) in Paris, they only sell to pick up in the shop... Anyway, as saying Buckwurst, the best one is to wait Space shop. There will be enough.

Invader Rubikcubist Book, by yojoe007 on Feb 27, 2023 13:04:40 GMT 1, I was able to place an order on fnac just moments ago. Order confirmed email, charge on my card. But if you check on fnac now it still says "in stock", but when you add to cart and check cart, it says "some items in your cart unavailable" - so I'm 🤞🤞🤞 that this comes through. Like Lroy says, it's possibly my only chance to get it at reasonable shipping to Australia Fnac shipped my order 🎉
€23 shipping for 2x copies to Australia... fingers crossed they make it OK.
Good luck to everyone else that's trying to get this thing out of France without breaking the bank!

You seem unfamiliar with fnac’s packaging. I haven’t been to Strasbourg but I’ve heard good things. All the best.

Invader Rubikcubist Book, by concrete jungle on Mar 2, 2023 19:23:08 GMT 1, Assume it’s all about volume. Sell a larger number of the book making smaller profit each time, but adds up overall. Similar to Amazon. Plus can probably pre-negotiate super cheap shipping with postal companies. I bought one from them and to be honest the packing materials were no better or worse than what Amazon and the likes churn out - but only 5 euro to UK (from memory)

I guess you get what you pay for, I don't think Denis is making a profit on shipping but I agree it's fairly expensive, what can you do?

This is why you might not want to buy from Fnac. I have had the same problems with 4000. They don’t care about books. So you have to be lucky : they “ threw “ books into a cardboard without any wrapping papers, bubbles protection etc etc … They will reimburse you anyway ( you have 15 days to declare it )… it’s a shame really ! This FNAC passes to be the super hyped market of cultural novelties in France ! Terrible !

Invader Rubikcubist Book, by Lroy on Mar 3, 2023 19:15:05 GMT 1, Hey don't underestimate the cost of all that bubble wrap Is s the weight of the book and taxes. if I want to send one to NY, only shipping will cost 66 euros and more as it’s a heavy book. I’m saying that since the beginning of this thread. We have to blame rates of shipping costs that are awful by now ! bubbles cost nothing it’s wind and you can make some for free with Hollywood chewing-gums !
