We use Absolute Backorder (East Coast Exchange) and USBE.  Absolute Backorder notes one does not have to be on the east coast to use them!  USBE is always a shot in the dark (you send a list of what you need, and they see if they have the issues), but with East Coast Exchange you know exactly what you're getting when you order.

Subject:        [SERIALST] Looking for back issue vendor
Sent by:        "SERIALST: Serials in Libraries Discussion Forum" <SERIALST@list.uvm.edu>




Hello all,
 
We have been using Hans Kuperus Periodicals for many years to replace missing issues, but it seems that they have gone out of business.  Does anyone have a suggestion for a reliable back issue vendor in the southern California area?
 
Thanks,
 
Philip
