Title: Books for Sale
Post by: Chad on 28 October 2013, 06:54:04 PM
I've put up a list of books I want to sell.  My reason for selling is to start to raise funds for my granddaughter. She has been selected to go to the World Scout Jamboree in Japan in 2015 and any money I get for the books will go towards the fund-raising for this opportunity.

I will try to keep prices at a realistic level and postage costs as cheap as possible. Hope some may be of interest to fellow members.

Cheers

Chad

The prices all include 2nd class UK postage.

The majority of the books are in good to very good condition reflecting the price and will be bubble wrapped for despatch.

Count me in I only have 80% of the bookshelves in the house.  The meglomaniac in me feels the need to take over the rest. :d

I've knocked those three of the lists.  If you're happy for me to do so, I'll leave the main list in the original post, and delete the one further down the first page?  Makes it easier for people to read/follow?

Guys.  Anyone got anything in their pewter pile that they don't REALLY need???

What I'm thinking is this...

Chad is trying to send his Granddaughter to Japan; not cheap!  I would willingly donate some stuff I don't really NEED to the cause.  So here goes:

Anyone after warmaster high elves???

1 Dragon rider
2 Spear units
2 Archer units

Make me an offer+ postage...and I'll send a cheque to Chad ;)

I'll take the Lace Wars book if its still avaiable
Title: Re: Books for Sale
Post by: Hertsblue on 12 November 2013, 09:15:56 AM
I recommend the Lace Wars as a good all-round guide to uniforms and colours. Based heavily on Knotel, of course.
Title: Re: Books for Sale
Post by: Chad on 12 November 2013, 10:49:43 AM
Lace Wars is a set of rules not the Funcken
books. Is that what you want?
