A NOTE ABOUT PRICINGAt High Stakes we like to price as keenly as we possibly can so there are always masses of special offers on our website. These change from week to week depending on the availability of our stock so when it came to listing prices in our guide we had to decide which way to go. Should we list the current discounted prices which would mean the guide would be out-of-date shortly after publication, or should we put the standard list price which would make us appear less competitive?

We decided that as we wanted to make this guide as useable as possible it would be most sensible to simply list the standard prices at the time of going to press. Consequently you may well find that title you are interested in is now available with a substantial discount, so please always check online or call the shop to confirm - you may be pleasantly surprised.

AND AVAILABILITY...It’s also worth being aware that titles also go in and out of print and sometimes they are hard to get hold of. If we know that something is going out of print we are sometimes in the position to buy the last available copies, which means that we have stock when other suppliers have run out. Sadly this isn’t always the case so while the titles listed here are to the best of our knowledge all currently available ( or soon to be released), it’s well worth checking with our website www.highstakes.co.uk or calling the shop on 020 7430 1021

DO VISIT US!While www.highstakes.co.uk is important to us, we are not just an online retailer - we have a shop in central London where you are welcome to call in.Open from 12 - 6 weekdays, you’ll find us at:21 Great Ormond Street, London, WC1N 3JBThe nearest tube stops are Holborn or Russell Square so do take the opportunity to drop in, browse through our extensive stock range and discuss the titles you’re looking for.
