Not SSD, but will give you an idea of how Fairbairn is priced these days

I know first editions are expensive, I was hoping a later edition might be cheaper.

The funny thing is, Hands Off! has just been reprinted by Paladin Press. You can buy an exact copy of that $400 book for $15.

Will,
let me see what I can find. I have several regular customers in the UK that may save you some time and shipping.

I'll pm you if I find anything.

I sold my copy of the 1931 SSD last year for $300 US. You might have better luck if you include the Interservice(William Cassidy) reprint
from 1981 ISBN 0-86695-003-6.

The O'Neill manual will be difficult to find, it was a proposed manual, so never had wide circulation.
