I'm not sure quite how to charge for these. I think in the interests of simplicity I'll say a flat rate of £1 per book - we can arrange discounts for bulk purchases if necessary. I'd prefer people who can collect from Shelford - or from Cambridge city centre if you only want a small number. If you want any of these posting it will definitely be extra on top!

Can't email ATM but I'd be interested in the French Asterix and the Chalet School, plus any unclaimed children's books if they are Puffins... If you want to price that up and email me we can then talk about ways of getting them here. :-)

Wow, Stirzaker? I was taught by him. He's a total loony.

I'll pass on the beastly Priestley, and I'm permanently scarred by trying to learn Lebesgue integration on the night before the exam. I think, in fact, I shall avoid interacting with any of it again...

Do you recommend the poi-spinning book?

I'd like all the Diana Gabaldon after Dragonfly (I've got the first two) and am interested in the mammoth book of erotica if it's not too big, although I fear from the name it may be huge!

Yay for books and clearing out.

Are you ok counting only £1 per volume for the comic collections? I would gladly take all of the sluggy freelance and spider man. I can collect from Shelford, but probably not until next week.

I'd also like to read the ranma 1/2, but I don't know for sure I want to read all of it, so probably shouldn't.

Edit: Or never mind SF if someone else asked for it first, sorry.

Heh. The entire chalet school is bloody good going! :)

(I have the set in mostly pb. Am now trying to make it at least all unabridged!)

Well, I'm never anywhere near Cambridge, but I do need to replace all my Sluggy Freelance (for reasons of cat) and I rather fancy Lessons from the Fat-o-sphere as well...

Actually, thinking about it, I can probably work out some kind of joint parcel arrangement with [livejournal.com profile] bopeepsheep. Or anyone else in Oxford. Or West London, come to that, I get around...

Yup, that sounds good. There are small boy noises about the spiderman vols too, would they be kid-friendly? Will email you when back at a proper computer later!

I'm very interested in the Trebizon books, I read a couple of them years ago, but never investigated the whole set. My mother lives in Cambridge and I visit her pretty regularly, although it won't be before November now... Is that likely to be a problem? If you find someone who wants them and can collect sooner, no problem at all!

Sounds good to me!

I've sent you a separate email to the gmail address (since I finally spotted that bit on the original posting!) so let's continue by email ...

.... you can let me know how close to the BR station you are (or the rugby ground, since I think that's where the company had our summer barbecue this year ...!)

ISTR Kreyzig was quite good as a maths for physicists book, and I'll need one of those to do any astrophysics. I'll buy that off you please, if you've not already had an offer...

Thank you. Do you mind if I add you as a friend? You seem to like similar books to me!
