Would anyone that has a copy of the Christ is With us Liturgikon be willing to post it online? It was published in 1954 and has Slavonic characters along with transliterated Slavonic and English. Some companies sell it, but 90$ is a bit too much to spend on one. Thanks in advance.

We offer the book for $90, which is what it costs to print in color, get bound, and cover the investment of time for the original scanning. We sell only a few copies per year, so there is no profit.

It's 270 pages, and color printing at FedEx Office is at least 50 cents per page (or more) which would run $135+. I understand you are looking for something less expensive electronically, but how do I cover the cost of the time to scan the original book if I make an electronic version available for free by posting it online? Me and my staff can't live working for free.

Perhaps I can offer an unbound edition of just the printed pages for less than $90.

I completely understand, and I am not asking you or your staff to lower the price or do it for free. Unfortunately, my wallet isn't too large right now, but I understand why you price it at that. It is a quite a valuable book.
