So as part of my recent move, I need to get around to getting rid of some of the many books I have accumulated over the years. I am just going to make a list here. More may be added as I find more books. I'm basically just asking for $4 if you want a book. That should cover the cost of a padded envelope and the shipping to your house. If you want more than one, I may be able to lower the prices as I would save on both shipping and materials.

All books are in decent condition, but if there's something you really need to know about it I'll let you know (I got some of these used myself, and they have underlining throughout the whole thing.). Here's the list (so far):


The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn – Mark Twain – Some writing (Bantam)

I would have to check and see if I have a box that would fit them, but I suspect I could do all of those shipped to NY for ~ $10.

I'll buy them all for media rate shipping. I'm only a few miles away from you, too! Add $5 for your troubles!

Alright. Let me know. Otherwise $10 to Troy is good too.

I think I am going to send the first 18 to CRAZYBUBBA and all the remaining ones to iSaint.

Where in MS are you, iSaint? If you're close, I would happily just meet you somewhere rather than having either of us pay to ship.

And Bubba - I have a box that will work, so just message me your shipping info, and I will message you my PayPal. $10 via something other than credit card should do it.

Thanks guys!

I'm in Columbus, which is about three hours from Memphis. Do you ever get to Tupelo, MS? Or, I could drive a little further northwest this Sunday, perhaps. New Albany?

iSaint, I don't mean to thread crap on duck's FS thread but are novels the only thing you really need? I have stuff just lying around that when I move I may want to unload. Giving it to a teacher would be better than anything. That includes random art supplies I think.

I would love to meet you in New Albany. It would be a good excuse to get out in a place I've never been and maybe take some pictures. Know any landmarks that are easy to find where we could meet?

I don't know much about New Albany. But, Tupelo has the birthplace of Elvis! It would be a little farther for you.
