ISBN

Has anyone purchased ISBN's lately, I see that the price has gone up, they do have the barcode printing service, before a barcode had to be printed by someone else or the user with software. An application to Books in Print is necessary if you want them placed for public exposure.

CIM has an ISSN assigned to it and is not offered publicly other than through shopping at LULU. I could have offered it through Amazon with an ISBN but that seems like more trouble than I am willing to go through with at this present time.
