But I don't know if any used books stores are actually taking books....(and I'm lazy so haven't checked......) And I've put off selling any of my extra game stuff cause that's a lot of work. So many boxes of RPG books. I was moving my INWO: One with Everything box the other day, which has never even been played (I played the CCG) and made the mistake of checking ebay to see how much they were going for.... now I have to decide if I want to put it up for sale, since if I get the average price they are selling for it'd cover my Bone 6 pledge (next year or whenever). I used my stimulus check to buy some shelves that I desperately needed. Even after buying about 12 square feet of shelving, I still don't have enough room for everything... I may have a problem. I have been setting aside several books that I don't think I'll ever re-read. I picked them up for cheap, so I don't mind getting rid of them. Of course, I've been buying more but I also make sure that I can put them somewhere. I also have some stuff I should probably get rid of. I have some original Lazer-Tag stuff, old toys and junk, that just sits in bins. And, yeah, I don't want to deal with getting rid of them, either. It just feels like too much hassle to deal with for the money. It took me two years and help from a friend to get rid of my Orks after I quit playing 40k. (I still have two complete armies) 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'll feel better, and thank me later. 1 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wait, Powell's runs on used books! If they aren't taking in new material, I don't think they will survive and that would be a real shame. I haven't been to their Portland store in a decade or more and I still remember the sight of a city block of used books. That and the intoxicating smell of coffee, old paper and wood. I really need to back there... They are; there's an online thing. Trick is, they're /super picky/ about condition, and they won't buy anything without an ISBN right now, so I'm told. I don't know if that's Standard Normal for their online system. They do seem to be willing to fund UPS Ground, so there's that. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's one of the dumbest reasons for not selling a product I have ever heard. Especially when there is demand for the said product. I wonder if the USA labels have Spanish on them. Will check next time I am in the basement. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SparrowMarie Posted September 26, 2020 Share Posted September 26, 2020 I started my free trial of Audible just to get Sandman. I have another free credit to use but I've no idea what to use it on. I've got a bunch on my wish list but most of them are series of books. I don't currently plan on paying for it after my month is up, at least for now. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still maintain that they're covering for Kraft using it as a main ingredient for their Canadian Meals...they can't come out and openly say that though, because of some manner of nondisclosure agreement. Which would also explain why the Pumpkin of Judgement is using said meals as a punishment for heresy. I can't imagine dullcote having a pleasing flavor... 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
