First, I love you guys. Second, be very patient with me. Unless you indicated you need the books urgently, and included the money for first class or express shipping, it’s gonna be a week or so to mail. Mostly because … well, the son who is supposed to be doing the packing and shipping could only give it three hours this week, which means…. never mind. Going slightly nuts. This is precisely the type of thing I suck at, so please be patient. They’re making me use a spreadsheet. (Cries.)
Please don’t order books that don’t exist: None of the DST series were ever in hardcover, for instance. (They will be, IF rights revert, but not yet.) And there’s no mass market paperback of Darkship Revenge. They never printed one.
Also Night Shifters is a weird, weird shape, halfway between mmpb and tpb.
It is, however very thick, containing two books: Draw One In The Dark and Gentleman Takes a Chance. So I’m charging $10 for it.
Please, don’t pay until I tell you “Yeah, I got that book.” Please pay once you say you will. Nothing will ship until I get payment, either paypal or check.
Um… I think that’s it.
Thank you! Spreadsheets aren’t so bad you get used to them.
Spreadsheets are not bad. Now, PowerPoint, on the other hoof, is Considered Harmful.
Spreadsheets?! Those… those fiends…
Spreadsheets: the ancient and terrible evil. They have even infiltrated our computers.
Ai! Ai! Our doom has come! Ai! Ai!
Ia! Ia! Cthulhu Fthagn!

Right?
I heard a rumor that the secret name of the International Lord of Hate is Spreadsheet.
Shucks. I was going to request that facsimile edition of the First Folio, and the Lindesfarne Gospels. Margaret of Austria’s Book of Hours as well, unless that’s already been spoken for.

Oh, my.
*Takes the link and RUNS* (I’m always looking for ‘I’ll never get there’ things to try. Yes, I do illumination. Slowly and only adequately at the moment.)
LOL.
At least it’s not the Necronomicon. 😉
Someone once asked the little old lady running a used bookstore for the Necronomicon. With a cackle, she announced it was right over there. . . .
She was joking, but she gave him quite a start with the act.
Did you say the exact words before picking it up?
She likes us! She really likes us!
so are/were there any hardbacks?
yes. There’s the absolutely horrible first edition of DST (I’m handing those out sparingly as only 1k were printed, they’re probably already collectible and if not will be and I’d like to keep a couple to help finance education/first business for grandkids.)
And then there are about a million GTAC. of which there isn’t a tpb. I thought there was, because I got confused.
was asking if you had any… o.o
Damn it. Not DST. DOITD. DO NOT ASK ME FOR DST hardcovers again, anyone. It won’t go well with you.
Me having hc? oh, you mean to read? Uh….
*facepalms*
no, i meant hardcovers of *any* of the books you were selling.
Yes. GTAC and DOITD. BUT DOITD is the truly spectacularly horripilendous cover, and probably a collectible.
horripilendrous? Sarah invented a word.
I’m reminded of the story about the farm winch being sold by classified ad. There was a typo in the ad, and then it got worse.
We got some shellbacks in the commenters.
Sigh. Looks like I missed out, no email to pay up yet for the refinishing mysteries. Ah, well.
Send email again? My son might have accidentally deleted some.
I only have the last two, though (you should know that.)
And… resent. Uh, make that “re-sent.” Sigh, English…
Should I have received an email about Night Shifters?
you should. Can you email again? Son was trying to organize things, and some things might have got deleted.
No rush. Take your time. It’s not like I don’t have anything to read around here. *eyes the towers of books threatening to topple*
Check goes out Monday. If it arrives by Epiphany it’s still Christmas!
In all seriousness, no rush.
Are you still managing to do this, Sarah? I might have a desire for a gift for someone, autographed.
yes, but wait till January for new prices/etc. Sorry. I need to organize the stock, see what I have and price to account for shipping.
OK, I’ll watch for info from you. 🙂
