Wow, thanks for the opportunity to add all those 'quality paperbacks'
to my collection. Somehow I think you won't get too many bites here. May I suggest craigslist? There seem to be a lot of folk there interested in stuff like that...

There seem to be a lot of folk there interested in stuff like that... Most of the editions on that list can be had for no more than a dollar or two in the Amazon marketplace. And I think it would be hard to find a bricks- and-mortar dealer anywhere who would pay $20 for the whole kit-and-caboodle if someone brought it into a store. Most dealers would more likely offer no more than $10 It was a lackluster offering, to say the best that can be said of it. No sizzle, no sparkle, in the bunch. Further, there are any number of suspicious elements in that ad, and I pointed some of them out in a post in misc.writing (where the same person made an even more off-topic post of the same article).. As far as what I pointed out regarding the suspicious elements of the ad, I think all that so basic to most posters here that I won't repeat it. (I waas trying to help misc.writing readers who may have had confused minds on the topic.) Hey, maybe the whole thing was a troll. It DID generate quite a few responses in this group and quite a few very entertaining ones in misc.writing. Hmm...
