This has got me wondering......
In Australia there is a national Christian bookstore that stocks COC, ISOCF. Right now the wait for those 2 books is currently 12-14 weeks (there's a pre-order list so first in gets first books of the next order). This bookstore orders books by the pallet regularly.
I'm starting to think that JW's are ordering these books cos the wait is sssoooo long.
Any comments?

Interesting point, AK.
Are you referring to Koorong? I ordered another copy of Christian Freedom in January, and it came in last week. A good 2 month wait.
If there's such a queue for Ray's books, you'd think the store would order in more books, to keep them in stock. Or maybe there's more books being ordered than Commentary Press are printing, so the backlog is in the US, and not the fault of Koorong's 9or whatever store you're ordering them from).
If anyone is short of a copy, you could try ordering direct. Commentary Press have a web-site.
Alternatively there's the source advertised on the banner at the top of this web page. I've always found Randy's store very good. Thanks Randy!

I ordered my copies on the Barnes and Noble website and I got them the same week!

I got mine from Amazon, and they came quickly. Don’t they ship to Australia? I can’t imagine why anyone would buy via their local bookshop and wait ages when they could get them from Amazon in a week or so.

PS. I have the 2000 version of COC, quotes up to a June 2000 Watchtower in it. Does everyone else have to 1999 version, because I have never seen anyone mention the 2000 printing?
Yes, I got them from Koorong.
Hey considering Australia is 20 years behind the rest of the world in everything else, its a miracle the books can make it there in 14 weeks!!

Thats how long it took for me to get GTR direct from commentary press. Surface mail takes about that long...but its cheaper. Try Air mail...its much better if you need things pronto.
