Post OT: Does anyone on this board have family/contacts in India?

There's a particular book on Microeconomics that I've been searching for (I'm working on my Ph.D. in Economics); it's out-of-print here in the U.S., but found it on the Prentice-Hall India website (PHIndia.com). Only problem is they don't have selling rights with the U.S.

Would greatly appreciate a fellow Rennlister's assistance in helping me obtain it:
The Theory of Price (4th Edition - 1987)
George Stigler
ISBN 81-203-1140-x

It's price is listed as Rs. 95.00 (rupees? if so, equates to only US $2; can't be correct, book is probably $30-50).

If you're able to help, please email me at Porsche911NYC@earthlink.net so that I can make arrangements to get the money to you.

Thanks very much.

a) My closest co-worker is Indian with a lot of "in" with his fellow countrymen here in the area; I passed on your request to him.

b) Tried an experiment to see if I could come up with alternate sites; did you try this English site? Found it after doing a search on Google using "The Theory of Price" + Stigler. Don't know if the edition is OK.

c) another Indian site
