catsidheShe sent me a $50 voucher from booktopia.com.au.
I went searching for something I'd like, and found a veritable trove of books on Deep Linguistics, many of the really interesting ones starting at $250, and working up (I remember seeing one there with a price in 5 digits!)
But I found a couple of books, and another for Mim, and took advantage of a free delivery promotion as well. And the last has just arrived. I am now, after almost two months wait, the proud owner of Old Irish Paradigms and Teach Yourself Babylonian.
Who would have thought they wouldn't have those in stock?

[0] "Hindustani" is to Urdu and Hindi as "Yugoslavian" is to Serbian and Croatian.
