We've sold over 2,100 copies of the book version of "What Catholics Really Believe" and after some heart searching and prayer, Dr. Ray and I decided that we were not ready to let this beautiful book go out of print. The origional print order was just over 2,500 copies. The book is popular, and it's being used around the world for Catholic studies. We print it in Malaysia (via Imago) so that we can sell here it at a reasonable price. I don't mind defending that decision:
a. After polling over a dozen printers here in the U.S. none could provide us with the special "flex binding" that we think is a great feature for a study book of this kind.
b. The prices we did receive for U.S. side printing of this book (with normal binding) would have forced the retail price of the book to nearly $90. But, now we can sell it for a suggested retail list price of $24.95 -- and the street price, especially in bundles is much lower.
c. I'm sure, now with the second printing delivered, that more than a few copies of the book have found their way into the Malaysia public, and thus we've covertly been able to do a little missionary work in a country the other side of the world and is mostly non-Christian.
