    You have to buy the book within the hour as the price is only valid for one hour. You can register an account and your credit card and then it's only a couple of clicks to purchase each time.

    AFAIK you have to buy within the hour, they only have a limited amount at the reduced price so best to buy asap.

    They would all be posted out separately anyway no matter how many you buy.

    Short Description for Tattoo
    Tattoos are worn by celebrities and leading media folk and by those in the street. They can be boldly on display or hidden discretely and are a permanent expression of individuality. Tattooing has obviously finally emerged from the back street parlour to become high fashion. This title contains details and whole body canvasses of this body art.
