Okay, I just got off the phone with the Family History Library (actually a
missionary in their call center). First, they are just wonderful to deal
with.

Now, to get down to business.

Individuals cannot purchase records, BUT organizations can. I suspect that
the woman I knew who got the records had someone in an organization get them
for her. That sounds like a plan to me.

So, the bottom line is that they can be purchased, just not by an
individual.

To obtain records, an organization would need to contact the FHL Outide
Sales: 1-801-240-6124.

I'm going to contact my Mormon friends and see if I can purchase it, use it
at home and donate it to our local FHC.

Best wishes,

Well that definitely does apply in the US but my friends (AGAWE) in Alsace
did purchase as per an e-mail I received today:

'Hello Charlie, Yes we had purchased all the microfilms from Oberseebach. We
purchased them by the Mormon society in Paris.'
