I'm flattered and deeply touched by all of your positive comments. Thank you so much! And I hope those of you still trying to get one or both volumes do indeed get them sooner rather than later! The inconsistencies in delivery times seem inexplicable to me.

Received volume 2 in Denmark today from Amazon UK.
Normally I'm not interested in unofficial PSB products, but these books with their content deserve a place on the shelf next to the official PSB literature. I really like how the two volumes look side by side as well.
Thank you geowayne for the work you have put into your website and now these books. Your insight has helped me decipher a lot of Pet Shop Boys lyrics over the years. These books are a must have for every Pet Shop Boys fan.

You're very welcome. And thank YOU (and everyone else who has done so) for buying the books and for your kind words about them! I really appreciate it!madsnielsen wrote: Fri 15 May 2026, 2:32 pm Received volume 2 in Denmark today from Amazon UK.

Does anyone know a place that will ship Volume 2 internationally?
My local Amazon cancelled the order without giving a good reason as to why?
These books are getting really hard to get and I would also like to help others struggling to get the book as well.
Any information on this would be greatly appreciated.
Thank you

Have you tried the publisher at https://www.pen-and-sword.co.uk/Pet-Sho ... ck/p/58026? (That's the publisher's UK site.) Perhaps they ship internationally. I'd be surprised if they didn't. Good luck!the8thark wrote: Mon 25 May 2026, 11:47 pm Does anyone know a place that will ship Volume 2 internationally?

I have used this bookseller in the UK, they ship for free to the US and are reliable, bought both volumes through them:the8thark wrote: Mon 25 May 2026, 11:47 pm Does anyone know a place that will ship Volume 2 internationally?

I also recommend Blackwells. I was able to order Vol 1 and 2 from them. I received Vol 1 a few months ago and Vol 2 yesterday.

AmazonUS has postponed delivery until 29 July.
I'm looking @Blackwells.

Amazon seems to get their copies in batches. I know that some other people have already gotten their copies from AmazonUS. So it would appear that they send copies out as they get them and then, when they run out, they have to let others know of a delay. It's a shame. But I hope you do get your copy soon. Thank you so much for your patience! Perhaps Blackwells will indeed prove a quicker option. Good luck!Xakrij wrote: Mon 29 Jun 2026, 3:37 pm AmazonUS has postponed delivery until 29 July.

Greetings,
I've been similarly luckless with Amazon on Part 2, which is all the more annoying being in Australia, where there are less options realistically available to us.

I'm happy to report that I've received Volume II from Amazon US, not directly, but through one of their third party vendors (yes, I paid for shipping). I only ordered a second copy after my initial direct order kept getting postponed and was listed as out of stock.
Wayne, I'm so impressed by the thoroughness and scope of these volumes. They are truly indispensable. Much gratitude to you for your hard work!
UPDATE: I just checked and currently both volumes are available on Amazon US for 1-2 day, free shipping. Get 'em while you can!

Greetings,
Also happy to report that my Volume 2 arrived in Australia this week, so after a couple of false starts I finally have the set.
