I believe only vol 3 is still available on his site. Vols 1 and 2 are sold out.

Hi Joe, believe it or not, try eBay!
Also Google search the book title, it will pop up on book sellers sites, Amazon too.
Got all mine for fraction of retail price, No3 was complete with box and all diagrams etc.
And all were signed by Nigel himself!
If you get stuck, message me, glad to help mate, what it's a 'll about.
