I have 6 lots of books that need to go to make some room. I put them together in lots so that I don't go nuts trying to ship single books. I think I have them priced well below retail (verified on eBay), it is just the shipping that has increased as of this month again. I am not trying to make big money on these, just want to pass them along to likeminded hunters who will enjoy them as much as I have. Some are just readers, and some are collectable. I have been collecting books - mostly on Africana - for over 40 years, so a few of these I have had a long time. I will pay the media rate to ship them here in the lower 48. (I will also insure Lot #1 as it is the higher dollar one). I can accept checks, money orders, Zelle, or my daughter has Venmo that we can use. I do not have PayPal and do NOT plan on using it. I ran out of media download space so if you need better pics of a certain book just PM me. Ok, here we go...
LOT #1 - $250
This is the one lot that is a bit special. It has a set of early Patterson books that I acquired in the small village of Hay-On-Wye, Wales in the mid 1980's. These were and are very collectable. I could probably get a little more for these, but I really want to see these go to someone that will appreciate them.
