Just having a bit of a clear out, and found a fat Sun book titled
"Solaris 7 Reference" by Janice Winsor, which I am never going to need
again.

Its more than 1500 pages of paperback in fairly good condition and once
upon a time it cost one of my employers about $45 - the ISBN looks like
0-13-020048-4

If its of any use to anybody in the UK then they are welcome to it for
the cost of the postage.

Form an orderly queue ?

What would book / media postage be to the U.S.A.?

I know it's not the U.K., but I've not seen any other takers comment
publicly.

I have no idea.

Is that Amazon proper or their used book resale outlet -- I think --
AbeBooks?

I know that I end up buying a lot of odd books through such book resale
outlets. I suspect that there is one somewhere closer to you that would
then resell it to an interested party.

I know that I hate seeing books go away. :-(

Its possible that the $24.95 shipping is to get it delivered to the UK
in which case you might get a better deal.

The actual vendor might be in Salinas CA ?

Yep.

I'm seeing an estimate for $3.99 for shipping.

Maybe. I don't think it matters much where they are in country as long
as they are in country, such as it effects shipping.

That's mostly true. Alaska and Hawaii are in country but not part of
the main geography and as such take more in shipping.

Would You consider shipping it to Madrid, Spain by any chance?
