Guys and gals, It is time to bid you good folks adieu... I have just celebrated my 72nd birthday, I have no one to leave my collection of just shy of 7,000 books to, I have developed other interests... I will be selling my collection, either wholly, if a reasonable offer is made, or bit by bit on the ebay... I really don't want to go that route, though, as my other interest has become quite time consuming...
I do want to thank you all, first, for making me feel welcome here, and second, for making me feel welcome here... Hell, I told you I was old... You folks are an upstanding bunch, and I spent many enjoyable hours reading knowledgeable posts, funny posts, junk, and friendly posts...
I may show up on occasion, just to check in, see what has or hasn't changed... I wish all of you the best. Take care, and Thank You.

I live in RI and Rhode Islanders eat chili with beans. esaravo private msg quote post Address this user
@crystalphoto - Best of luck in all you do! I’m only about 6 years younger, and wonder when I will decide to clean house myself. But there’s still a few books that I wouldn’t mind owning, so feel free to post some stuff here, especially keys, where you won’t have to deal with fee-bay!

You can start with the keys and the slabs and maybe sell the rest to MCS. Do you even know what books you own? I stopped keeping track years ago and don't even know what half the stuff I own is anymore.

I can relate. I've been retired for 12 years now and in that time I'm finally down to about 1 long box and 3 short boxes to having the whole 14,000+ added to CLZ. It's been a long process.

I don't believe this....and I know you don't care that I don't believe this. GAC private msg quote post Address this user
All the best for sure!!

Like others have said, sell your slabes and keys here first....whatever doesnt sell go to Fee-bay and MCS.

All the best to you and your future interests.

Take Care!
