i noticed that book too. Its only available through online stores issit? any other books? and hows the review of this book?

Check out the product reviews. I cant remember where but i think theres 2 threads on this book already. Quite some time back so u might need to do a thorough search under that section. EoPCF is only available thu Jerry himself on his website.
Anyway, its a great book with tons of things that can keep u occupied for a long long time to come and u might still not be able to master everything there.
Books on flourishes are quite limited. Unless u are looking for ebooks, check out dan and dave's website for a few of them.

Seriously, the EoPCF can last you a life time. Although it's a little high on the price side, it's very value for money.

It should be hard cover. I've not heard of soft cover EoPCF.
I've just ordered it recently, waiting for it to arrive. ;)
I believe Kevin has one. He even wrote a review for it. Take a look.

I ordered 3 copies at $255USD, so $85USD each. That should cost around $150SGD each.

magicb: I'm afraid it's 85USD/150SGD each...
As for the other 2 copies, they are for my friends. Sorry about that. I can't post in Marketplace yet, that's why I didn't think of bulk ordering for you people. I'll help you guys order the next time.

I haven't bought mine YET but the last time I found out was "The cost to ship to Singapore is $30.00 via Airmail, making a total of $130.00 (US). (There is a $10.00 discount for ordering both items.)" from the flourishman team. That's the book plus the companion dvd and with shipping to Singapore. Hope that helps.

there is a dvd with that book??? :o :o
TayYH89 - November 18, 2005 03:00 AM (GMT)
Just asking, is the 130USD for the book only or DVD + book. The book cost only 75USD, adding 30USD for shipping, it is 105USD only.
As for the DVDs, Flourishman will be coming out 4 DVDs, 1 is out already. The second DVD is coming out soon. Each DVD cost 35USD. Take a look at his website.

The cost is Book + Dvd + Shipping to Singapore. Yup. 130 US. Still saving up lols. ^_^

In that case, I thought the shipping cost, at 20USD, is actually very reasonable.
Meanwhile, still waiting for the book to arrive! :)
