A few notes about availability:
Most of these items, whether in print or out of print, come up from time
to time on auction sites (eBay, Yahoo, etc.) and other sites which sell
used books, music, etc. Be sure to shop around, since auction prices
can get rather high for some items. For example, before the
availability of "Nick Knight" on DVD, eBay auctions for laserdiscs of
the film sometimes topped $100 and VHS tapes sometimes went above $70.
Also, used copies of the novels can sometimes go for $40 to $100+ on
used book sites like B&N or Amazon.
In some cases, you may be able to find used, or even new, copies of what
you're looking for at reasonable prices. For book availability, I check
these sites: <http://www.amazon.com>
<http://www.bn.com>
<http://www.bamm.com>
and, only for Greg Kramer's books,
<http://www.amazon.ca>
Other bookstores may have in-stock copies of
books which have gone out of print and the larger stores have sold out
of.
Susan M. Garrett has written an article about looking out for scams when
buying FK merchandise (both professional and fan-produced). It needs
updating, but is still worth reading.
