I no longer work in the Acquisition Department of
the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign so I did
not think it was entirely fitting for me to comment on
Harrassowitz service, but I want to second that glowing
endorsement.  I have always considered Harrassowitz to
be the Premier bookdealers.

     Two short tales --

     During World War II Harrassowitz collected all the
serials/series that we had had on order with them.  After
the war ended they immediately started shipping them to us.

     Within the last twenty years we sent a monographic
order for a Festschrift to Harrassowitz.  They wrote a
very polite letter back enquiring whether we really
wanted them to supply it since it was being published by
the University of Illinois Press!

   Food for thought.  We should all be so good!
