Where is the cheapest place to buy assimil Spanish.
I looked on Amazon and it was almost $200 for Spanish with ease and 4 cds.
Is there a better source?

I bought the Spanish with Ease Day by Day for about US$35 from Amazon in July. It came with the 4 CDs.

Here it is on Amazon for $32.97. Link
I searched for it using the ISBN number and found it but strangely when you search for Spanish with Ease it doesn’t show up.
BTW That’s a great price for it as it’s nearly 70 euros from Assimil.

Yes make sure you're getting the CD's. Most of these low prices only have the books.
The best book for learning Spanish that I can reccommend is "Spanish Made Simple." Excellent, excellent book. I think it should be around 11 dollars (US).

Are you looking for the new books or the old books? The old books I generally find on dealoz.com for fair prices.

Yes, but they're "free" because they're pirated.
HTLAL would like to steer clear of these waters. Forum rules state:
"PIRATE COPIES OF LANGUAGE PROGRAMS
Do not use the forum to post requests to trade pirate copies of language programs nor links to download them."

Certainly, I and many others refrain from downloading illegally materials that are currently available for sale. However, I must confess that I have downloaded a few resources from uz-translations that are no longer published. For example, an Assimil course from the 1950s (having already bought all the current Assimil offerings for that language at full price!). Certainly no sale has been lost by this, and I am not sure we can say the course has been "pirated" in the sense that most people would mean by that term.
