Why is the English version of this book more than twice the price of the Spanish version?

Perhaps you are comparing the different versions.

As always, you're right¡¡

Yup - infallible that's me - NOT! ?

in https://www.pennypress.co.uk/store-2/#!/B4A/c/15510043 only English version is shown for book & ebook. There is a Spanish version of just the book. I want just the English version of the book (i.e. no ebook).

 

[agraham]

There is a Spanish version of just the book.

Not that I can see. I can only see the Spanish eBook at the same price as the English one

In https://www.pennypress.co.uk/store-2/#!/B4A/c/15510043 it only shows English version as book & ebook. I want book only.

 

[josejad]

I can see it in the second row (the same link you gave us)

 

[josejad]

Ups, sorry, you mean just the paper book... I'm afraid there's no that option, not in English neither Spanish.

 

[johnaaronrose]

@José You're correct. I didn't understand the Spanish!

??? It's fine, because I have a lot experience in English without dictionary. Also, searching in English documents is more useful and quickly!!!

PennyPress's web page no longer results in a download of updated eBook when requested. They do not respond to an email detailing this glitch.

 

[johnaaronrose]

I'm still not able to get the latest ebook version. My order number is 2842.

 

[agraham]

I've just checked and it downloads fine for me. Are you providing the original purchase email address?

I've provided the original email address & order number via the pennypress web site. But the download (either of epub or pdf) doesn't happen. I've also emailed b4a@pennypress.co.uk but no reply.
PS I have changed my email address domain from gmail.com to mailbox.org on this forum but when I emailed b4a@pennypress.co.uk I used gmail.com. Long story why I changed domain but I still have access to the gmail.com email address.

We have replied to the email and apologised for the delay. John Rose has purchased the latest version of the book so there is not yet an upgrade. When he tried to download he was shown a message saying there was a problem with the data he had entered. Penny Press will update the upgrade page soon to clarify this issue for other customers.

Hello, I bought the Spanish version thinking that it was the latest and I see that the English version is much more up-to-date.
I cannot receive the latest version in English if I have bought the Spanish one, right?
Thank you

 

[PhilipBrown]

Hi, Yes I'm sorry to say purchasing the Spanish version does not allow you to upgrade to the English version free. If you purchased from the Penny Press store and you send me your purchase order number I will see what I can do.

I tried all the links I could see here and was unable to find an order link.
