James - The difference is Mark is not demanding that someone do something NOW, because you would like a printed manual.
Dizzy organized the effort, researched what format, size and grouping of chapters make sense in each volume, prepared the masters and arranged the print run, then took orders, collected funds, manually packaged and mailed the manual sets all over the world. Then he did I believe 2 additional print runs when more folks showed interest. There can be no question that Dizzy gives lots of time freely to benefit the community.
The fact that you happened to discover all this years later, and want another run done so you can purchase a set, is not cause to criticize Dizzy, and demand he prioritize this effort to satisfy your whim. While he has indicated he would do yet another run, I believe it's reasonable to conclude he has been busy with other things in life, and will get to this when he has time.
If you need a set so badly, I have a set of printed 50g AUR manuals I'll sell you. These are the original sets sold by hpcalc.org, which are essentially the same except they are 8.5 x 11 (also spiral bound) instead of the smaller size Dizzy uses, making them easier to read, but a bit larger to handle.
Please contact me off list if you'd like to purchase them. I suppose this offer is open to other folks too, but I'd give James first choice as the offer was motivated by his request.

I've been exchanging PM's with Bob and would like to publicly express my humble and sincere thanks for his extreme kindness in offering me this wonderful opportunity. As I mentioned to Bob in a PM just a moment ago, the two manuals will certainly be put to good use. A thousand thanks for your generous offer, Bob!

Sure, happy to help. It's better the manuals are appreciated and used, than sitting in a stack here. I feel a bit like Santa on the Island of Misfit Toys..

thank you!

I'm interested in a set also. I missed the first several rounds. Now I'm in Europe most of the year so shipping should be easier and cheaper.

I would buy a set if you have any stock.

I have the payment pages constructed and ready to go, just trying to work out the PayPal fee situation and double-check the final prices - hopefully I will have that finished today.
The payment page will be linked here on the forum and there will be an opportunity for everyone to get their order in. We have a list of those who have shown an interest so far, so hopefully nobody will be missed.

No problem with having to pay a bit more to cover PayPal fees.
If you'd like to let me know the postcodes of the UK orders I'll see which ones I can handle for you.

Please count me in for two full sets shipped to Italy.
Thanks,
Michele

I just found out about this - am I too late to join in?

I am interested as well.

Hi Max..Dizzy hasn't posted the payment page yet, so you haven't missed it. Once Dizzy opens the payment link with prices you should be able to order. I'm guessing it will remain open for a period of time to allow everyone to order before he closes it and sends the 50g document order to the printer. Then there will be the time to print and bind the documents and then Dizzy will have the task of packaging and shipping out the documents, globally.
Cheers..Jim J.

After a ridiculously long delay, I'm finally ready to start taking orders. The respective pages for each set are below.
Anyone may place an order, regardless of whether you have previously stated an interest.
~
I will leave the page open a week or two, depending on how quickly the orders come in.
I have included PayPal fees in the figures (which vary by region), although sometimes they are not charged by PayPal - I have no way of knowing in advance.

Dizzy..it appears the Advanced User's Reference manual (AUR) and User's Guide (UG) manuals are a separate order for each one with individual shipping charges for each manual. Do I assume correctly that there is no benefit in lower postage costs for ordering the AUR Manual and the UG and shipping them in one package?

Unfortunately, you're correct: there doesn't seem to be any way of combining the two sets to lower the postage figure, as the total weight is over 2kg, which seems to be some sort of magic number.

Order through PayPal completed for AUR and UG.
Thanks for making this happen.

Ordered both.
Thank you very much for providing this opportunity !!

Ordered a complete set (AUR and UG). Payment carried out via PayPal - thanks a lot, Dizzy!

I just placed my orders, too - one of each manual. Thanks for doing this, Dizzy!

Complete set ordered. Thanks, Dizzy, can't wait! :-)

Ordered both manuals. Really appreciate the effort in getting these manuals printed and mailed. It's a monumental task! ~ Jim J. ~

Looking good so far.. most of the orders are in already, so I probably won't leave the payment pages up for too long.

I'll look it up tomorrow (sunday EU) with better time or evening today. Thank you to make this happen.

Isn't there a faster shipping option for Brazil? Thanks!

You can use the USA / Canada one for Brazil.
