BARGAIN BOOKS
No Books Over $10.00

 

When I purchase books, I often deal with individuals who prefer to sell their entire collection to one buyer. And with good reason, it involves a lot less work than selling books one, two or three at a time. When purchasing entire lots of angling books, there are often copies included that do not quite meet my standards for a collectible quality book. I am taking the liberty of making these copies available for those of you who may just want to read a book or books and do not have collecting as a motive. As you will see, there is no rhyme or reason to the listing, the books are just listed as I come across them


All books are very readable with no writing in the text, no torn pages or other unpleasant surprises unless clearly specified. Consider this to just be an easy and inexpensive method for securing that book you have always wanted to read, but never got around to buying.


To purchase a book or books, just select the number/s of the book and e-mail me with your selection. I will calculate the exact postage and supply you with the total owed. You may then send payment via PayPal directly to my e-mail address. Books will be shipped Media Mail at actual cost, unless otherwise specified..
