How to Get Play Better Checkers and Draughts, First Printing, Electronic Format

Richard Pask's intermediate/advanced level book, Play Better Checkers and Draughts, 1st Printing is available in electronic (PDF) format for US $10.00. Delivery is by email attachment or download link.

We accept PayPal, money order, certified checks, or cash (at your risk). Personal checks are not accepted. In the USA, at least, you can get a money order at WalMart for about fifty cents so this is not going to add very much to your total cost. Please email us prior to sending any money, for payment addresses and availability information.

Please note that this is most definitely not a profit making undertaking by The Checker Maven or the bobnewell.net checker site! $5.00 goes back to the rights holders, approximately $0.59 goes to PayPal, and the remainder (all of $4.41) is put towards the costs of hosting our websites.

Before ordering please read the whole page!

To use this electronic publication, you must have the free Adobe Acrobat Reader, which is easily obtained and installed from the Adobe website.

Availability of the Second Printing of the book in electronic format is unknown. If it does become available, we will provide it to you for no additional cost at your request. However, we do not guarantee or even predict that the Second Printing will become available; it's doubtful at this point.

Important legal disclaimers and instructions follow. These may sound unfriendly but in today's sue-everybody world, we need to be clear about what we promise and don't promise. Please read before ordering.

  1. No support is provided by us or by the book's author. Please don't ask, we simply don't have spare time. We can't, for instance, tell you how to install Acrobat Reader.
  2. No warranty of any type, whether express or implied, is given.
  3. No liabilities are assumed, of any type whatsoever, for anything whatsoever, for any damages or potential damages whatsoever, arising out of the use, lack of availability, malfunction, or anything else attributable to the book. You must evaluate the usability, safety, functionality and desirability of the book on your own.
  4. No refunds and no returns for any reason whatsoever. If you don't like the book, you have our sympathy but won't get a refund.
  5. Delivery is normally fast (we send you the book soon after receipt of payment) but we could be out of town or otherwise distracted so we don't quote a guaranteed delivery time. Write to us before sending money.
  6. Sales tax, excise tax, use tax, duties, etc., are up to you to determine and pay.

Payment by Paypal is preferred by far. Money order, certified check, or at your own risk, cash, are also accepted. Personal checks are not accepted, don't ask. US dollars only, please, in a form that our bank will not charge us a fee to accept.
