Surely any small local independant bookseller would order them for you? And
if a salesperson told you otherwise at a big shop - they're lying. Ask to see the
floor manager and explain your problem to them. Bookshops can and will order
pretty much *anything* for you - it's the way they make money!

Oh yes, while I'm here (sorry, busy writing for ShadowTK at the mo') - this thing
about SR3 having no 'atmosphere' and not enough detail. Well....DUH! Sorry,
but like someone says, if my players ask "How much does a Crunchie bar
sell for?", I don't look it up - I *make* it up. Part of being a GM is filling in the

cracks in the world FASA give us - crikey, in the Good Old Days, with B2
etc. - you made up your campaign world entirely - being given all this information
is a bonus - I'm sure there are S-run campaigns being run that *completely*
ignore the FASA world. Wouldn't be difficult....
