Thanks Colin.
Yes been there Roy, think I might get the copy I have found elsewhere for just over ?30.00.
The prices of books can be quite varied Pilbeams Haworthia book I got on Ebay for ?12, yet I have seen plenty for sale at ?40, ?50 and more.

Re: Long lost friend on its way back
And there's only one copy on abebooks.com for $105 dollars, so that tells me this is a pretty rare book.

Re: Long lost friend on its way back
Hi Bill,
A bargain for just over 30 quid - I'd definitely go for it at that price, especially since as I said earlier, this is REALLY a gorgeous but informative book.

Hi SDtill,
Even at 40 quid this is an excellent buy. You'll love the book, or I'll eat my echeverias.
