I want to buy Carabande + Action Set for my unix group at work. Where
can it be bought new?

Online stores in the US don't seem to carry it... I've seen references
to people having it shipped from Germany but haven't found a storefront
yet. Thanks.

It's out of print - I don't know of anybody (in Germany or elsewhere)
that has new copies.

That Top 100 list has it marked "Avail" -- guess I'll ask him.

It's been out of print for some time. We sold our last sets quite a few
months ago. I looked the other day on ebay and didn't see any either.
The Action set is even harder to find than the main set.

Carabande and Action Set are out of print. You can occassionally find copies on
ebay and sometimes specialy stores can get copies but it will run quite a bit
of money.
The Action Set is well over the $100 tag.

I saw one (Carabande) in a shop in Venice (near the Rialto) just over
a fortnight ago for €40.00 (approx $40.00), but the box was slightly
damaged. So if you happen to know anybody who is going over there for
a bit...

I decided not to buy it after much thought, so it is probably still
there, waiting. I know this is probably no use to you, just thought
I'd mention it.

Don't ask me the name of the shop, as I cannot remember; but maybe you
can get in touch with them somehow?
