Hi Arnold, I just sent $80 via PayPal. I had a bit of difficulty entering my US address as PayPal insisted on entering my Canadian address with a provincial initials. So you will see NU after NY. Please ignore it. I use this US address for all shipments that can not be sent to Canada. Many thanks for ordering this book for us all.
