julesjonesPertaining to a conversation on irc yesterday:
I *think* these links will take you directly to the named collections on my LibraryThing account.
http://www.librarything.com/catalog/JulesJones/disposedof
These are the ones that I've owned but disposed of. I created the category when I started unpacking the many, many boxes of books from storage, and realised that it was time to be realistic about whether I was ever going to read them again. Some of them have already gone to the local Oxfam bookshop, but the ones that are likely to do better on the charity bookstall which waveney runs in con dealer rooms will be going to Dorset next weekend. In the meantime, if anyone else wants them, you have a few days to collect or pay postage.
http://www.librarything.com/catalog/JulesJones/forsale
The ones that are or might be for sale. If I'm serious about getting rid of it ASAP, it's already on Amazon, but there are others in that collection to remind me that they're worth enough money to bother putting them on Amazon afterwards when I do get around to reading them.
ETA: I've just created two more collections
http://www.librarything.com/catalog/JulesJones/toselllater
These are the books that I expect to put on sale once I've read them. "For sale" should now be just the ones that I'm willing to sell right now.
http://www.librarything.com/catalog/JulesJones/todisposeof
The books that I've weeded out but are still here waiting to go. At the moment it doesn't include all the books that are available for collect or postage -- check the "disposed of" list as well, and ask me if it's already gone.

Date: 2009-08-09 08:56 am (UTC)If possible, I'd like the following:
From the "disposed list" (if still available)
E Nesbit - The Enchanted Castle
Stephen King - IT (I can't get enough computer books *g*)
Asimov - The Robots of Dawn
From the "for sale" list
Heinlein - Methuselah's Children
Bob Shaw - Ship of Strangers
If you can let me know how much that would cost in total and how best to pay you (Paypal, Bank Transfer, envelope full of used Ten Bob notes)?
Emails sent to dom [at] rpdom [dot] net will get to me.
Thanks
