Well Amazon lists four sellers. Two in the UK who want $63 for it and two in the US who want $156!

From Amazon it says 9 copies left of the third edition and $53! So I don't expect them to carry the 4th until those go.

They were quite happily accepting orders for the fourth edition when they thought they could actually get it, this despite still having inventory from the previous edition. They do offer the fourth edition as a Kindle eBook which I do have, I'm actually waiting for when the corrected fourth edition finally shows up in a print edition, and I expect it to be quite a while.

I just ordered a copy (4th edition) from ebay. It already shipped and I think it's already the corrected edition, since in the last days several sellers listed it.

Wow, $90.90 plus $4 shipping. Is that really how much the book will be going for?

I bought my copy from "The Book Depository" in England, via Amazon. Cost $63 + $4 shipping. Took 1 week to reach California after I placed the order.

Mine just arrived in the post, bought off Amazon last week after trying to order for many months.

Great timing as I am about to jump on a plane to Beirut, so looking forward to getting started on it!

Argh. Went to Amazon, tried to order, no 4th edition showing as available. Must have sold out. Argh.

Edit: Ordered one, but missed that the seller says it won't ship until July 20 (one week from today). Probably back-ordered. Argh, and double-argh. I guess I'm just no good at this internet sales game. Would be so nice to go down to the bookstore, actually see it in reality, and just buy the damnable thing already!
