Search Strategy:

I searched book websites, trying the title or author or ISBN. When I
typed the ISBN only into Google, I finally came up with the book.

Request for Answer Clarification by jamesland123-ga on 09 May 2004 19:41 PDT

Thanks but you have told me where the book is sold. You did not answer
my question which was "How do I purchase this book"

All the sites are in Japanese. The English help on Amazon.Jp does not
explain how I can purchase the book. I spent a lot of time trying.

Dear jamesland123,

I'm sorry, I misunderstood your question - I thought you were asking
where you could order it (it took a while for me to find it) because
you hadn't provided a link to a website asking how to use it.

I'll get back to you with step-by-step instructions as soon as
possible. Again, I'm sorry.

Sincerely,
hummer

Dear James,

I've erred. The book is not available on Amazon.jp. If you hover your
cursor over the dark orange button and look at the URL attached to it,
you will see the word "preorder", which means "We don't have it now
but will send you a copy when we get one".

I've asked the GA editors to remove my answer - please accept my
apologies for causing you all of the trouble and delay.

Sincerely,
hummer

Dear James,

Thank you, that is very nice of you. There's no way to lower the fee
after the question has been answered (or not answered!). The best
thing for you is to let the editors remove my non-answer so another
researcher can work on your question - perhaps they will have better
luck than I.

Thanks again, James, I appreciate your offer.
Sincerely, hummer

the answer told me where the book should have been but wasn't. Iwould
like him/her to get 2/3 of the fee rather than none if possible.
Thanks James
