I said I would do it. I have! The price of some of these census sets is subject to sufficient advance orders being received. The maximum price if you order now is shown on the census project web page. http://www.rod-neep.co.uk/books/census/index.htm The more advance orders that we receive, the cheaper the final price will become, and *everyone pays the cheaper price*. Some of these projects are very large and very expensive to produce. Prices are based on the anticipated number of sales of each set (which varies from county to county). The object of the exercise is to make the censuses available, not to make huge profits. Therefore, the more people who pre- order, then the cheaper the price will become - for everybody. Some have been reduced in price already! CORNWALL 1861 CENSUS Due to initial targets being met, the price has been reduced from £35.00 to £30.00. All those people who placed an advance order already will receive the set at this new lower price. (Subject to the next target being met, the price may reduce further!) You can make it cheaper by ordering in advance now. DEVON 1861 CENSUS Due to initial targets being met, the price has been reduced from £52.00 to £47.00. All those people who placed an advance order already will receive the set at this new lower price. (Subject to the next target being met, the price may reduce further!) You can make it cheaper by ordering in advance now. NOTTINGHAMSHIRE 1861 CENSUS Due to initial targets being met, the price has been reduced from £40.00 to £35.00. All those people who placed an advance order already will receive the set at this new lower price. (Subject to the next target being met, the price may reduce further!) You can make it cheaper by ordering in advance now, but this one is close to the release date. On schedule for release September. Others are in danger of being reduced in price! =============================================== STAFFORDSHIRE 1861 CENSUS Update 26 August: We are close to reducing the price on this set. After 8 more orders have been received, the first price reduction will come into effect. LINCOLNSHIRE 1861 CENSUS Update 26 August: We are close to reducing the price on this set. After 9 more orders have been received, the first price reduction will come into effect. ... and several more are looking very interesting indeed, requiring less than 20 more orders to enable the price to be reduced. Credit cards will not be charged until the CDs have been completed ready for despatch. Remember.... it is YOU who set the final price by placing advance orders! and.... There are FREE Directories on CD with all advance orders for a census set placed before midnight Sunday 1st September - for details see the census project web page. http://www.rod-neep.co.uk/books/census/index.htm Please note: I cannot vary the free CD stated, or substitute an alternative. If you already have it, why not give the free one to someone as a gift? ALSO ! - as we are currently running a promotion for new customers to Archive CD Books - all new customers will also receive a FREE copy of the excellent 1791 Universal Directory of Britain. This important and incredibly useful 5 volume directory on CD (normal price GBP 29.74) will be included totally free with any CD order from every new buyer. This offer is only open to those new to the Archive CD Books Project who have never yet bought one of our CDs. This offer is available for a very limited period! Therefore place an advance order before midnight September 1st, and if you are a new buyer, you will receive both of these free CDs! Please do spread this news amongst your friends! The more advance orders that I receive - the cheaper the census CDs will become. And if they hear the news and place an order before next Sunday, they will receive a free CD book of a directory too - one for each county census ordered.
