Good day!

I'd love to buy the book "Kendo Kata: Essence and Application", but sadly the only one who appears to have it is Kendo World themselves. I say "sadly" because apparently they only accept Visa and MC, while I have AmEx and Paypal. It also doesn't help a lot that shipping itself would double the price of the book, but that's something I'm willing to accept.

Does anybody else know any other places that sell the book? E-Budo are out, as is Amazon. Maybe someone in Europe willing to part with their copy? :p

It'd be great if KW came out with an ebook version, like they're doing with their magazine. But I doubt that they can simply do this, as there would be licensing rights involved with the original author.

.... which sadly is one of the ones that I found that is out of stock. I thought that was E-Budo, but it was BudoVideos.

I thought paypal had an option where you could use it like a credit card so you could buy from places that weren't setup for paypal transactions. OK, quick googling gives me this:

Looks like paypal has a FF plugin that allows you to use it like a credit card. Does that help?

In my experience that only works in the US and not in the Netherlands, sadly. But I'll give it another look. Maybe things changed in recent years.
