David N. Schlesinger started this thread with a lie designed to smear
my business. He had every intention of abusing this NG from the start for his libelous purposes. I did not start this thread. All I have done is set the record straight. None of this has anything to do with books, its his stalking/harassment behavior on display and nothing more. And David N. Schlesinger is a fellow who can't control his own behavior. |

Schlesinger is a fellow who can't control his own behavior. Oh, stop. You've been caught in multiple lies here already, so don't try to pretend otherwise. You know full well that you and I had an exchange regarding the Picatrix, precisely as I described, before you went running, sobbing like a thwarted three-year-old, to get LJ Abuse to suspend the poor sap in whose entry the "discussion" was being conducted. That's because you're not only a liar, but also a coward. And the only thing you've managed to set the record straight about is that you're in fact a pathologically lying lunatic who's got so little impulse control that he can't work out that _he's_ doing way more to "smear his business" than _I_ could ever do. You've most certainly demonstrated who "can't control his own behavior". Want to prove me wrong? Stop responding. We both know you're _incapable_. Thanks for doing my Will, JASON CHRISOPHER HUGHES aka LUIS M. ARSUPIAL! |

Actually this thread started on 2/10 and was resurrected when seattle_bookseller started posting the other day (3/2). Google Groups is working just fine. |

You can't control yourself. Prove it, stop lying for 24 hours. Stop
posting to this NG for more than 15 mins. You can't do it. You are an obsessive, psychotic little violence-monkey. Seattle Bookseller does not do business in blogs. And I certainly don't discuss business in blogs. I use email. And I don't use it with serial killer types like David Schlesinger. David has been threatening and harassing my family for SIX years now. It does not make any sense whatsoever that anyone would discuss selling him a book in any manner when they are being THREATENED BY HIM. Common sense alone blows David Schlesinger's lies apart. |

wrote: I own a pristine copy of a volume titled "The Picatrix", published by Ourobouros Press in 2001 in a limited edition of 1000 copies (mine is #331). I'm doing an appraisal of the current value of this book, so I searched Bookfinder to see what was listed there. There are several copies listed, ranging in price from a low of $204 to a high of over $500 (the latter from a Seattle brick and mortar store for a copy with a scuff on the cover!) One of the outliers, pricing a copy at $430, was an outfit called "seattle_bookseller". I wrote and asked why the price was so high, and got an amazingly vituperative and abusive response, stating that this "WAS HOW THE RARE BOOK BUSINESS WORKED" and that I "NEED A COURSE IN REMEDIAL ECONOMICS" and so on. I was a little surprised at this, but a little research turned up the even more surprising information that this seller is one "Luis M. Arsupial", the same person who was doing business (kinda) as "texas_bookseller" up until about six months ago, and who previously created a huge stink in this group over some questionable transactions! This kind of pricing seems like nothing more than gouging to me. I could buy two copies of this book for what this yoyo is asking for it. I can only assume that he's doing business on a basis of relying on his customers being ignorant and not doing their research. Based on the listings on Bookfinder, I'd estimate the value of this book at $225 to $250, certainly nowhere close to $430. Is this a usual practice? Do a lot of booksellers price their wares in the hopes that their buyers will be too stupid to know that they're being asked to pay twice what a book is worth? (Apparently this "Luis M. Arsupial"--"marsupial"...?--was once known as "Jason Christopher Hughes", a name which turns up a wide variety of odd and amazing postings on USENET...) David N.
