Hi Kim!

I didn't see anything on prices for them to do a book search for you, so I'm not sure.

I hit the link called:

BookSearch Online Order Form

and here's where you can go to read that page:

http://www.booksearch.com/request.php

You can e-mail them from the page, I think, or it might open your e-mail client.

Just for the fun of it, I listened to the audio captia, and it is definitely unique.

Hi, Debby, thanks for your message about booksearch.com. I'm curious to know
if they charge the customer for doing book searches or just when purchasing
a book. Regards, Kim.

Hi Roger and everyone!

I just visited booksearch.com and followed the link "About Booksearch.com",
and here is what it says:

Out-of-Print book business since 1968. We bring all that experience to bear
when searching for the book you have requested. We hand pick the best

communications necessary to facilitate the transaction. This is a small
diligent company. Our time is spent working for you. Thank you for using

This sounds like it could be a good resource.
