They provide excellent service. They also are US distributors for Al- 
Saqi (London) and Obeikan (Saudi Arabia) publishers.
OK to mention that "Mustafa al-khalijii al-amrikii" referred you to  
them.
HTH. Good luck. Khair, in shaa' Allah.

The Arabic-English al-Mawrid dictionary is available for $48 at Jarir's
Books in LA. I've purchased from them before (online) and was happy with
the service.

I'd be interested in knowing if anyone has seen the new Al-Mawrid
Al-Akbar (Eng-Ara, 2152 pp.), and how it compares to the smaller regular
one. Also, the regular one (1255 pp.) now comes with a CD:

   Al Mawrid: English-Arabic 2005 w/cd  $52.00
Does anyone know if the CD is any good? (good interface, has everything
that's in the printed version, etc.)

Why not try ebay? They have good deals on it, though the 2005  
editions are more expensive than older ones.
Best,
