Have you tried Barnes &Noble yet? I've bought virtually brand new books for less than I ever thought on their used books area, the postage isn't bad and I've been pleasantly surprised with the quality of the books and the speed that I got them to me.

I bought the "Encore" book on Amazon.....It was only $16 and some few cents. I ordered another book, also, and got the free shipping as they were over $25.

I didn't buy the one block wonder book - I bought a different one that is the same technique - the Wacky wizard books. I got the Learn to Be a Wacky-Star Quilting Wizard http://www.amazon.com/Learn-Be-Wacky-Star-Quilting-Wizard/dp/1590120051/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1257684189&sr=1-1

I got them used from Amazon and they appear to be really nice and exactly what I need to get started on one block wonder style block... and they were much cheaper. I was able to get both booklets used for $8 and they are really nice - okay, not a thick book like the OBW books but they have several quilts in each plus the technique - just don't have all the extra fluff I guess.

Thanks again everyone for all your help. I have ordered the book from fishpond, here in Australia as the postage is cheaper than amazon. The hard thing now is make sure the family hides it on me until Christmas.
