Surely there were other books in that shipment.......what might those have been? I would ask:)

UPS drivers are Teamsters.
Orders are orders.
(Except for a couple of folks who are unworthy of mentioning by name.)
Hope you paid by credit card.
If this happened to me, I'd proactively send the card issuer a copy of the email and a dispute letter just in case the charge appears but the credit does not materialize.
Good thing that this book has been republished on the Internet.
> Does this pass the sniff test?
No, due to:
"I ordered two copies ..."
This is a very rare book, and any seller with multiple
copies is suspect. If their sales history shows that
they've sold even more copies, it's even more suspect.
Take steps to recover your payment, pronto.

Smart eBay sellers don't even make it apparent that the
parcel is an eBay item, much less what the contents are.
Finally NewSoldier investors - the value of this book is
apt to plumet on 03 Nov.
All the loanable copies disappeared from the Denver area libraries too.
Very interesting.
Notice they didn't offer to send you the books if they turn up?
This probably means that the bid price didn't get high enough for the seller's liking. The books will "mysteriously" reappear and be listed in a new auction, and hopefully sell for more this time around.
This is a cop-out and an abuse of eBay's system. File a Non-Selling Seller report with eBay.

Sellers are required to have the merchandise they sell, or else clearly list that they do not (some sellers drop-ship merchandise). If a seller continues this practice and recieves enough complaints, eBay will take action.
No problem...if Brown doesn't find the book then
UPS just bought several copies of "The New Soldier"...
I've heard rumor the Kerry campaign is buying up all the copies that they can find. It's not un-imaginable that they would make the seller an offer he could't refuse.
The phrase "by any means possible' comes to mind.
At my library, the one copy of the "New Soldier" has been listed 'in transit' back to the shelf for 2 months now. The book must be too heavy for the librarian to pick up and put it back :)
I don't know if this will help you, http://goexcelglobal.com/NJ_DefenseForce/NEWSOLDIER.pdf
But you can download that for now. No pics, just the text. The link wintersoldier.com has all the pics and a summary.
Hope that helps.
Probably some DU idiots trying to exact revenge on those who want the truth about Kerry to come out.
It's fishy.
I bet it was in the fire at the Capitol Building yesterday. (/sarcasm)
Interesting. I saw on Fox only a couple of days ago that they had no hard time purchasing one and that there were many copies on ebay for sale. Signed copies, cost and etc. As they were talking I turned to my husband and said, not for long DNC will take care of that.
