OK, I've been in contact with the authors and they have in turn managed to get CUP to acknowledge the Australian market (!?)
They have re-issued the flyer for Asia-Pac.
The discount code should now work.
Valid to the end of Jan 2017

I've just been advised it should be accessible from the 18th Jan.
I hope they are correct.

Gee, that's a fair bit more than the conversion of the price on the flyer. Even Cambridge's full price of £60.00 is only around $AUD 100.00 and Book Depository reckon the full price is $AUD 180.00

Update,
There is now a page available to pre-order the Atlas and Handbook with the 20% discount. The prices are quoted in us$ and the quoted postage is as usual a killer at us$40 for the set.
I'll post the link ASAP.

Beren,
Caution!
That's Marc's associated handbook, not Richard's atlas!
The atlas is $125.45

Glad to hear it's arrived!!
(Some of us are still waiting...........)
It will be interesting to see the differences between the book and the earlier webpage document.
I still believe Richard's Atlas and Kaler's "Stars and their spectra" are the best buys for any amateur interested in spectroscopy.
