  • Could I purchase The New Zealand Style Book, GP Publications and The New Penguin Dictionary of Abbreviations A-Z and combine postage? I love rurally and prefer internet banking.. Thanks, Michele m********1 (332)01:24 pm, Mon, 8 Apr Thank you for your question, Michele. We can post the two books together for $8.95 + $5.50 (RD) = $14.45. The books are $11.99 + $16.99 = $28.98 so the total to pay if you wish to proceed is $43.43. Buy one and I will email you. DavidHarcourt (47199) • Monday, 8 April 2024
