At least you may be relieved that this one does not seem to actually
exist. It disappeared almost on the instant Peter mentionned it.
I would have bid also for your ebay copy. I was looking for an
American address that I could have had it sent to, they would not
post it to Europe.
Had I bid, it would have been even more expensive, for either of us.
This is not the only work that is in this peculiar state. The VAUDRY
DE SAIZENAY manuscript has been announced as a froth coming reprint
for the last four years.
It is of similar status as the Ness, to Baroque musicians, but
everyone is having to settle for photocopies. I wrote to Minkoff
about it but got no reply whatever.

Dear friends,
it's crazy. I cannot figure out why a decent 2nd edition could
not be
re-issued!
I bought in the US the copy auctioned on eBay last week and
ended up
paying:
- US$ 102,50 for the book
- US$ 36 for USPS Shipping (rather expensive, isn't it?)
- EUR 14 in Western Union commissions (the seller doesn'a ccept
PayPal
and I cannot blame him...), in US$ is about another 22 bucks.
Total: more than US$ 160
If there is a continuous market for this edition (and we all
know there
IS), it would be nice to *FINALLY* see a reprint.
