Books for sale?

Post by legionzilla »

The OUSA 1996 has been long out of print, however, I'm keen on buying it because of Ronald Koh's stegs. Do any of you want to sell it (impossible) or know where to buy it?

I think that you are wrong :-)

I went to the OUSA site and found:
http://www.origami-usa.org/thesource/ag ... blications

If that link doesn't work:
1. http://www.origami-usa.org/thesource/agora.cgi
2. Select: Origami USA Publications (from the menu on the left)
3. Go to the third page - the last two matches and there is the
Convention '96 Annual Collection

I didn't verify if that is the one with Ron's Steg, or if it really is in stock.

PS If is IS in stock, I will be happy to sell it to you for only $50 :-)

Isn't Ron's Stegosaurus in OUSA 1998? That one is no longer sold.

It is indeed in 1998 and it is also indeed not available anymore. A quick google search yielded this page http://www.welcome.to/origami_ronkoh

You can contact him from there.

Books For Sale ?

Post by gordigami »

Always a good resource, is Origami USA website and lending library. http://www.ousalibrary.com/viewcollection.cfm
You can borrow books/convention books to view diagrams & models.
Only a very small charge for borrowing books, as well as a terrific collection.
The librarian, Deg Farrelly, has been very helpful in the past.
Only open to members tho, of course.
May I wish success to all who cope with the mountains & valleys of Life,
with all its peaks & depths, as well as Origami .

The convention books occasionally show up from random sellers on EBay so periodically check. The OUSA lending library however is excellent! deg runs a very good operation there and all of the associated fees are more than reasonable. I have used it many times and have been very pleased each and every time with the service and selection. I realize this doesn't really help you since you are not in the USA, but I just thought it justified further emphasis.

Try this site: http://design.origami.free.fr/bestof/koh/index.htm for Ronald Koh's email, and ask him about availability of diagrams.

You might also email Deg Farrelly about other options, since you are not in the US.

Finally, a not-so-cool solution is to search Google with Ronald Koh stegosaurus and look at retrievals #4 and #5.
