Sounds PAINFULLY familiar.  I lost everything from "A"-"CE".  Took me
nearly five years to replace it all.

There's TWO copies of this bad boy on eBay, up for auction.  (Along
with the US version of FLP.)

At the risk of making yourself beholden unto the great unwashed that is
myself what haunts too many used rekkid shops, and the possibility of
losing a friend forever (what would be my first friend _EVER_), might I
suggest using a web-based rekkid broker called gemm.com?

Gemm's a middleman what searches through an inventory list from a
network of affiliated stores.  They give you listings, by artist, of
what releases are in stock in various stores.  In some cases, Gemm can
contact the vendor for you, and in some cases you'll have to contact
the vendor directly.

Best of all, Gemm's got search agents.  These agents look for releases
by a specific artist which run periodically.  The results of the search
are then e-mailed to you.

And it's free.
