Readcomix 8,750 posts Posted April 19, 2018 (edited) Hi all, I have a collection of approximately 50 pre-code and early post-code romance books to share on the boards. I will update start time each day but I am targeting somewhere around 10 p.m. EST. At a glance, the books are generally mid- and lower grade but mostly present well. My goal is to be able to offer between 5-10 of them each of the next few nights. In many cases, comps will be difficult so I expect to only be able to get through a few per night given my schedule. (In keeping with the rules, I have chosen and photographed one book to offer tonight to open the thread.) Payment -- Money order or check; I do not have Paypal. Shipping -- Actual, U.S. or Canada (usually priority flat rate within U.S.) First in thread wins, though PMs are welcome. Don't be listy Returns -- Sure, just notify me within three days of receipt and get them back to me on your dime, in the same condition.
