Good morning, 

Question #31919


My question was promptly answered, the merchant agreed to ship the
book,but now the merchant nitified me that they no longer have the
book and is cancelling the order.  Am I entitled to have the question
answered again?

Sure no problem, this is a hard to find book, but after going through
a few online used book stores I found it again at a shop in
Williamsville NY.
You can order it online from Abebooks.com, or you can e-mail the Book
store in NY and order it that way. Here is the link that gives all
directions for each method:
"Book Details"
http://dogbert.abebooks.com/abe/BookDetails?bi=55268701

I hope this one works out for you, let me know if something goes
wrong.

Greetings, 

I contacted abebooks, they had the book in stock, filled out two
questionairs, gave my credit card info., placed the order, now today
they informed me that they do not have the book.  this is my first
time with Google. answers, I am getting a little uneasy about sending
so much personal information to websites that claim to have a product
then its turns out they do not.  If you know cvan answer the question
of finding the book, that wuld be great.

I am sorry to hear that you are having such a hard time with this, I
had no idea that all of the sites I have suggested would be so
shoddy...

However it appears that after some serious in depth searching of
Barnes & Nobels used book collection. They actually claim to have the
book, this is something I over looked on my 1st 2 attempts because
searching the used books at B&N is a very daunting task. I put in the
ISBN, and it gives me over 1000 books that are simular, and it says
"one of these books may be the one you are looking for"
Then it is up to the user to go through them all... I hope this works
out for you, I tried to search other used book sites online, but found
nothing new. Then I decided to try the big ones again, and came up
with this:
"Barnes & Nobel.com"
http://shop.barnesandnoble.com/oopbooks/UsedBook.asp?userid=68XXKH3UU4&mscssid=74X8TNADMSSM9HP791TGKH48F9D4DLBA&author=Nat+Cntr&title=American+Photographers+of+the+Depression&ean=2814209562416

I hope that link works... It is very long, if it doesn't I will find
another way to post it.
I really hope this helps, if it doesn't, I am very sorry, you can ask
for another clarification and I can try again, but resources are
running low.

p.s. Something I always forget to do: To find all the used book stores
online I went to google.com and searched for: online used book store

This is my first experience with Google Answers.  I received my answer
the same day and so far I am completely satisified.  jeanluis-ga hit
the nail right on the head.
