Come one and come all! I got books galore and need to get rid of them as fast as humanly possible. Fiction, Non Fiction, History, Poetry, Educational, etc... Don't see a book you want or wondering if I have a particular book you are interested in? Make a request and I'll see if it's in my 10,000 plus collection!

2011-05-26 [Viking]: I'm gonna have to keep an eye on this...

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: Anything in particular you are looking for?

2011-05-26 [Viking]: Not really, though the Robert Burns book is tempting.

Any chance you'll add a photo or two of each book?

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: Yep. I'm going to take some tonight when I go home.

2011-05-26 [Viking]: Excellent!
</billandted>

2011-05-26 [Lothuriel]: I would like to buy them all but sadly, my money tree hasn't bloomed yet.

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: Well get some Miracle Grow!

2011-05-26 [Akayume]: I'm in the same boat. :3

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: Grrr you broke bastards!

2011-05-26 [Mortified Penguin]: What Tolkien books do you have?

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: Seriously XD

Well I have 2 worth mentioning (but won't sell)

1973 3rd print collectors edition Hobbit

1974 1st print collectors edition LOTR

Both leather, original collectors boxes, mint condition. (estimated $600.00 USD)

Other than that, just crap paperbacks and 40th prints from the 90s and 2000s :/

2011-05-26 [Akayume]: What about the Alice book you mentioned in your diary? :O

2011-05-26 [Mortified Penguin]: $600?! I'll cut you!

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: It's already been sold :(

Yep 600 XD

2011-05-26 [Akayume]: Dangit. >.>

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: Sowwy :(

2011-05-26 [Akayume]: S'oke. I have a pretty old (like, 1950's) softcover edition, but it's nothing special. XP

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: Coolio :D

2011-05-26 [Akayume]: It has pretty pictures? :3

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: I bet it does X)

2011-05-26 [Akayume]: ... >.> *poke*

2011-05-26 [Danboo]: these sound good but unfortunately i have no clue what these are

2011-05-26 [Thunder Cid]: The ones here are collections of poetry, fiction, and a history book thrown in for good measure.

2011-05-26 [Danboo]: could you tell me more about wild thing i have known

2011-05-26 [Chimes]: Browning is good, if you're into poetry. :)

2011-05-26 [Danboo]: I'm into reading, if there wasn't so many ebooks and stuff to read on the internet i wouldn't even use the computer and i don't even watch tb

2011-05-27 [Mortified Penguin]: I prefer to read books that have fictional maps in them. What do you have in that category?

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: Well Mort you're in luck. I found a 3 volume hard covered box set of LOTR. 2nd edition, collectors pack, copyright 1965. Interested?

2011-05-27 [Mortified Penguin]: Price? Pictures?

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: <img0*300:stuff/aj/101743/1306507503.jpg>

<img:stuff/aj/101743/1306517094.jpg>

2011-05-27 [Mortified Penguin]: You couldn't throw in a little nudity to spice that picture up?

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: I haven't got them appraised professionally yet, but the current rate I see this set going for online is 295.00 USD. I'm of course going to give you discount if you are interested.

2011-05-27 [Mortified Penguin]: Well, considering that $100+ is probably out of my price range, it would have to be a rather large discount.

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: Hmmm...I'll have to think about it. I'll get back to you by Monday, but for my knowledge pm me a price you can go.

2011-05-27 [Mortified Penguin]: I'll get to it later. Probably.

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: Alrighty.

2011-05-27 [Mortified Penguin]: And would you happen to have Pilgrim's Progress?

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: I'd have to go and see, but off the top of my head I have no idea.

2011-05-27 [Linderel]: Yeeeah. I'll just be sitting here and drooling. No way I can afford anything beyond $50, and even that is a stretch. :P

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: I have a lot of cheaper books too. I just need to get them sorted and priced.

2011-05-27 [Linderel]: Hurry up, man! :D

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: Hmmm...*looks on desk* I have a Robin Hood and His Outlaw Band 1912 I could do $25 on. Good condition, but the pages have that aged look to them.

2011-05-27 [Linderel]: Mebbe I'll just wait and see. :3 Luckily I'm a bit of an omnivore.

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: Sure sure.

2011-05-27 [Linderel]: <img250*0:http://get.unshelved.com/store/Shirts/Bibliovore/0.large.png>

2011-05-27 [Akayume]: CIDDDD. ROBIN HOOD???? O_______O We need to talk. NAOW.

2011-05-27 [Linderel]: Akay is so cute. :3

2011-05-27 [Akayume]: I love Robin Hood! *dies* I also poked Cid to see if he had any poetry by Sappho. :D

2011-05-27 [Mordigen]: Will you take trades?? Or a Partial payment + trade ??

2011-05-27 [Thunder Cid]: I could do a partial payment perhaps. I dunno how I'd work it out though :/

2011-05-30 [Danboo]: magick XD

2011-05-31 [Kitailec]: I would love them, but I am poor!

2011-05-31 [Thunder Cid]: DAMNIT!

2011-06-02 [Mordigen]: what do you mean you don't know how you'd work it out -- you tell me the partial payment you'd be willing to take, and I send it to you just like a full payment.....only it would be partial XD

2011-06-03 [Thunder Cid]: Okay okay. 50/50 is the best, but (I know how the economy is) I'll do a 33/33/33 or four 25% payments :)

2011-06-03 [Danboo]: Do you have any books on Magick?

2011-06-03 [Thunder Cid]: Those are a little modern. I'm pretty sure I saw them at the bookstore yesterday :/

2011-06-03 [Danboo]: no.. i meant an old one.. there are some just hard to find and perhaps a Book of Law?

2011-07-15 [Mordigen]: You drive a hard bargain Cid my friend, but I must say......I wanna see more of what you have rather than that same book up there and the modest list below XD

2011-07-15 [Mordigen]: I would also be interested in olde occultic books - depending on the culture, religion, and mysticism base.

2011-07-15 [Thunder Cid]: Fair enough :)
