Appears the sellers lists an auction with a Best Offer option. That is an awfully small amount of time to notice, send an offer, have offer accepted, and have no one put in a starting bid. I've put in Best Offers on books without an auction and no one get back to me in 24 hours. My favorite are the auctions that start at $0.99 with a Best Offer option; the seller usually never responds to the offer before someone else bids $1. What's the point?

Popular Post Point Five Posted May 21, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted May 21, 2019 (edited) Presenting my first... and possibly my last... full run of Bakers. I like looking at them as a set with the #24 first. Kind of a "before and after marriage" narrative.

Doesn't appear to be (directly) sold through eBay; item is "no longer available for sale". Also, it's hard to find this listing on eBay; sometimes it shows up, sometimes not.

I have always had a difficult time finding this book. Most likely, yes. Was listed for ~10.5 hours before taken down. Though eBay is making it extremely difficult to contact sellers for those private deals. And here is the item# for a direct search: 264333545811.
