Here's what we said in the past,quoted below.
Sales had slowed down since we first got the books.
We never decided to buy more. I believe we thought what we
had would last a while and we didn't need to decide soon.
Scott,
Sorry, I didn't get back to you sooner, but I finally got
the info I needed.
No, you're not deficient. I think that your calculations
are correct.
However, all the prices are in Singapore dollars.
At today's exchange rate (1S$ = 0.599 US$), books are
$10.78 each. $S300 is
$179.70 US$.
Buying fifteen books would then cost: $10.78 plus $11.98
or about $23 for
each book
Buying thirty books would cost: $10.78 plus $5.99 or about
$17 each for each
book.
Buying 60 books would cost $10.78/bk plus $5/bk shipping.

We're selling them for $25 members and $30 nonmembers. So
unless we buy
30+, we won't break even. So maybe 30 is the number.

hmm...or maybe "zero" is the number...
Here is a breakdown of online sales of the book. These
numbers are
approximate and don't include payments by check and seem to
just be "off"
by 10% or so to begin with....
2003-03 21
2003-04 11 (cumulative 32 - 1/4 total sales in first 2
months)
2003-05 8
2003-06 6
2003-07 2
2003-08 3
2003-09 7
2003-10 3
2003-11 3
2003-12 3 (cumulative 66 -- half our total sales in
first 10 months)
2004-01 8
2004-02 6
2004-03 6
2004-04 7
2004-05 6
2004-06 2
2004-07 2
2004-08 3
2004-09 3
2004-10 1
2004-11 1
2004-12 2 we sold not quite 50 copies in 2004
2005-01 4
2005-02 2
2005-03 2
2005-04 0
2005-05 2
2005-06 0 (we've sold only 10 copies this year so
far...)
total 124
It might take us another 2-3 years to sell another 30.

Hi Diana,
I have marked it as "temporarily sold out" on the
website, and have
forwarded your note to the advisory committee to figure
out if we should
order more. Normally, I'd remember the results of any
earlier discussions
on the list, but my memory is really fuzzy lately, sorry!
