Octopus bought out Philip's about two years ago. I think supply and demand is the reason for that high price for a book which retailed at c£6 sterling. What we all should do is go to their website and hit the Contact Us and say how much we miss the availability of the North of Ireland Maps because they no longer produce them. The spiral bound maps for England and Scotland retail around £12 sterling. Viola > > No listings at Abebooks. You're right, those prices on Amazon are astounding!
