Some neat books this weekend by
Francis A. Miniter[_2_]

call it that understates what it really is. It started four
years ago this spring, and we regulars - a dozen or a few
more - all get email notice (that was my contribution) of

New cycle of used-bookstore extinctions on the way? by
Bill[_2_]
In Southern California, where I visit used bookstores, it seems to me
that
about one-half {at least) of the shops around in the early-2000's are
gone.
In most of the cases I am aware of, the dealers were not on-line and

Determining value of used books. by
[email protected]
I was looking for used books on the net and discovered in many
instances the same book in similiar condition and edition varied in
price from $8.00 to $100.00. So is there such a thing as a used book
price guide to narrow down the actual cost of a book?
