PM,
I believe this is the one i ordered in 2011.....I have given up on the other one.....I am just glad to have this one....I think he had to get more printed so you still have hope. Let me know please.

Prospectormikel,

Mike is a good and honest guy. I ordered this book from him several years ago, and it is one I still constantly use.

Something must have happened is all I can imagine. I will call him and see if there is a problem.

Best-mike

DENNIS AND MIKE,

THANKS FOR THE POSITIVE FEEDBACK. I AM WITH DENNIS ON THE WAITING. I WANT THE BOOK.

AND I APPRECIATE THE INFO AND THE EFFORT MIKE TO MAKE THE CALL. I HAVE CALLED SEVERAL TIMES AND LEFT MESSAGES AND EMAILED HIM ALL WITH NO RETURN.

I HAVE READ HIS COLUMN IN GOLD PROSPECTOR'S MAG. FOR YEARS. I HAVE USED SOME OF THAT INFO IN LOCATING MY SITE, AND EVEN ACKNOWLEDGED HIS WORK IN THE BOOK I AM WRITING.

I REALLY DON'T WANT TO REWRITE THAT PART OF THE BOOK., AND I REALLY WANT THE BOOK.

I AM GLAD THAT YOU KNOW HIM AND KNOW HIS REPUTATION, AND CAN STAND UP FOR HIM.

I READ YOUR POSTS OFTEN AND I KNOW THAT YOU ARE WELL KNOWN AS A STRAIGHT SHOOTER AND KNOWLEDGEABLE.

ALL OF THIS JUST MAKES ME WANT THE BOOK ALL THE MORE.

THANKS GUYS.

MIKEL

PM:

Did you ever receive your book?

It appears the author is selling these on eBay.

Please let us know.

Thank you!

Good luck to all,

HEY, OLD BOOKAROO,

I STILL HAVE NO BOOK. HE HAS CHANGED OR CLOSED HIS EMAIL ADDRESS, I HAVE EMAILED HIM SEVERAL TIMES AND I GET A FAILURE NOTICE ON THE EMAILS. I CHECKED HIS WEBSITE TO MAKE SURE IT WAS CORRECT, AND IT IS THE SAME.

I AM GOING TO TRY TO GET MY MONEY BACK THRU PAY PAL. EVEN THAT WILL BE TRICKY AS I USED MY BANK AND HIS PAY PAL. I HAVE MY INFO SHOWING DATE AND TIME AND AMOUNT.

I HAVE BEEN A LITTLE BUSY LATELY BUT I REALLY NEED TO JUST GET IT OVER WITH.

I WILL CHECK ON EBAY AND IF HE IS THE SELLER I WILL LET PAY PAL KNOW ABOUT IT WHEN I CONTACT THEM.

THANKS FOR THE HELP.
I REALY APPRECIATE IT.

Bookaroo,

That is not Mike that sold the single copy. Mike is from Northern California, the location for that one was Wyoming.

Because the eBay seller is offering signed copies, I jumped to the conclusion that these were offered by the author.

Recently I ordered a copy of the National Geographic special treasure issue and the seller did a terrible job of packaging it. Just shoved it into an envelope (as so many eBay sellers do) and the USPS (of which I am a big, big fan, by the way!) tore it up a bit.

The seller was jerk about it, refused to accept responsibility, &c., &c. EBay refunded my PayPay payment in about 30 seconds.

To repeat myself - too bad the good people who advertise here on TreasureNet don't carry this book. I'd like to do business with 'em when I can. They are supporting the forum, and deserve our support, in turn.

Good luck to all,

Mike signed every copy of his book that I know of. Reasonable mistake, as I know a few people that have written books with a limited audience self publish and sell on ebay and their own websites.

Mike:

On the eBay listing it stated "autographed by the seller," leading me to believe it was the author offering the book.

However, not every person selling books on eBay is a book expert - sometimes the descriptions don't match the items.

It was just one copy - and it appears to now be gone.


Good luck to all,
