Help for a longshot book search.

It's a very long shot, but I'm appealing to anyone who can help me buy some books from Italy.

www.biliardonline.it is a website for billiards items, and they sell some books that are very high on my wish list: Il Billiardo, In the Name of the Diamonds, and some other odds and ends. Their merchandising interface doesn't like any of my credit cards (all of whom have authorized me to do international purchasing), and my e-mails go unanswered. I have no contacts in the Italian billiard market, so this is one of several calls for assistance I am putting out. I would appreciate any ideas you might have. These books are not on Amazon, B&N, Alibris, eBay, or any other I've seen.

Thanks,


Carl
 
Search for the book title in quotes on google.com like...

"Il Billiardo"

Note google says "Did you mean: "Il Biliardo""

Or add the word price in the search like...

"Il Billiardo" price
"Il Biliardo" price

Or try...
http://www.addall.com
http://used.addall.com

Also if you don't know Italian, google.com has a translation area which might allow you to send an email that they could barely understand...

PM me with a complete list of what you want. I have a great billiard contact over there.
 
I work for Barnes and Noble. If you could post the author name or ISBN, or any other data about the books, I might be able to help. Even if they're out of print, sometimes I can find it. It's worth a shot anyway.:)
 
Caedoes, have you search ebay in Italy or do worldwide search for the books you want on ebay. But alway check on shipment cost!!! , before buying from oversea. Also you should ask it they take International Money Order?

Thank you gentlemen!

I will look on eBay Italy and a couple of others. If that comes up dry, I'll PM rackmsuckr and go from there.

Progress is a wonderful thing.

Hi Carl:

If you can locate the books on Italian sites I might have friends to help you. Besides, my GF is going to Bologna in April to join a children book fair.
