I would never put not being able to buy a book under the header "catastrophic", but I will try to get it at a different location if the book I want isn't available to me at my usual haunts. And as my local bookstore only has the "current bestsellers" in English, paper books are out of the question as well. (as I generally don't like those 'current bestsellers').
I find it a different situation if the authors are aware of the situation and are contemplating what to do with it. But in those cases, I might download the book from the darknet and then buy it when it arrives.
