Update: Amazon Germany now also has the books listed, for €36 (which is fine.) Since I haven’t received the “Notify me when the UK books are available” mail yet, I assume this is further downstream propagation from the Amazon US listing.
If that is accurate, then there should be no need at all to manually ship books to other regions?! I guess that’s very good news for future books!
Thanks for writing this; I didn’t even think to check Amazon Germany since it wasn’t listed here.
That said, a quick search for Engines of Cognition on some websites that purportedly compare product prices on all Amazon EU stores did only list prices for UK and DE. Since the product is imported from the US in either case, and the non-US store pages were not created manually, I don’t really understand why it wouldn’t be offered on all Amazon storefronts.
EDIT: Apparently the product is available on Amazon DE (though probably only within Germany) for “free worldwide shipping” from the US: the checkout page lists a shipping fee of 11.14€, which it then discounts to zero. This is the same procedure they use for nationwide free shipping, which is nominally priced at 3~4€ IIRC.

Indeed the books are not yet in-stock in Amazon UK.
