The idea being I suppose that if someone wants to know something and they (perish the thought) don't get a response they can ask specific members.

Hi,
I`m interested in the Book French Warship of WW I form Couhat & Jean Labayle.
Is it available, what will ist cost?
Regards

Rolf, apologies for the delay, I'd forgotten I had written this!

I had thought more that if members put down what books they had, then other members could make specific requests for information, such as;

"I see you have this book [insert name here], can you tell me what it says about this [insert subject here]?"

So I'm afraid I'm not selling the Couhat book, or any others for that matter. I bought it a couple of years ago in a bookshop in Wigtown, Scotland - it wasn't exactly cheap either (cost me over a tenner for a small book), but it's in perfect condition for something over thirty years old.

P.S. My collection has boomed somewhat since the original post. For intimidation reasons I keep it online at Wikipedia here;
