I answer your questions below. First, thanks for pointing this out, Didier!
I had already noticed amazon.fr carried the Donald Duck Adventures pocket
book, but nothing else.
And now, indeed, I see a couple of WDC&S issues; that of February, for
instance-- or the one of August (?), though it seems they can't have it
until December. Great prices, too: 6.25 euros!
I pay 9 euros for each at the comics store; since I order many books from
amazon, I easily have more than 20 euros so that the shipping is free--
meaning I would still pay the WDC&S titles 6.25 euros only, for instance.
I'll try and keep an eye on this. I don't have any DDA pocket book yet. I
guess I'll try ordering some through them. I wonder whether they will
actually carry the WDC&S titles, especially in France.
Might it be possible because of their binding, which would enable it to be
as considered in a "book" category, as opposed to "newspapers", which they
don't carry?
Might this also enable amazon.fr to sell them in France? We know that comics
stores normally aren't allowed to carry American Disney commics because
Disney considers we ought to buy the existing French Disney magazines (as
opposed ot other countries who don't have local Disney magazines)?
I hope so. I'm very satisifed of amazon.fr, and would gladly order from
them, especially at that price-- $3 saved + $3 saved + $3 saved + ... =
$$$$$ (well, euros-- surely enough to fill a miniature Money Bin)!
We ought to write amazon.fr and tell them that "reading age! 4-8 years old"
is quite erroneous.
>>>So I am wondering if one of you could give me the ISBN for the following
6
>>>issues :
>>>U$ 319, 321, 323
>>>WDC&S : 635, 636, 637
I am missing a couple issues, unfortunately, so I can't tell you for U$ 319.
Here are the others--
U$ 321 (Sept) ( "Attaaack!" ): 0911903186
U$ 323 (Nov) ( "The Coin" ): 0911903232
WDC&S 635 (Aug) ( "The Three Caballeros Ride Again" 1/3 ): 0970092202
WDC&S 636 (Sept) ( "The Three Caballeros Ride Again" 2/3 ): 0911903178
WDC&S 637 (Oct) ( "The Three Caballeros Ride Again" 3/3 ): sorry, can't find
it; the place where the bar code with the ISBN is printed on 636 is blank
here (?)
