[bigjohnshea]

Hope everyone is having a good weekend!

 

Here's a short list of books for sale.

 

I'll be happy to ship these free via Domestic Book Rate within the US, but it takes forever to arrive.  If you'd llike First Class, Priority, or need International service please let me know and I'll get you a qoute from USPS.

 

Prices listed are below the lowest on Amazon.  Please be assured you are getting the best deal. :-)

 

Follow the links if you'd like to see photos.  Only included one photo for the two better known books.  Happy to provide more. 

 

PM me here or email bigjohnshea@yahoo.com if interested.

 

Cheers!

The Compton book is the soft cover edition.  Low price on Amazon is $85 so $75 is not bad.  :-)  Cheers.

[bigjohnshea]

might be interested in the compton book, but how much overlap is there with 100 masterpieces?

[bigjohnshea]

Joe,

I really do not know. I don't have a copy of the other book to compare it to. I know this book was printed first, before the collection was sold, so I'm sure there is some overlap.

This book contains alot of written content though that the 100 Masterpieces book does not.

Cheers,

[Grey Doffin]

I don't think there is much overlap with 100 Masterpieces.  Nippon-To is a good reference, useful information, and John asks a very fair price.

Thank you Grey!

[bigjohnshea]

Bump.  Still for sale.  Still can't find lower prices.  

Cheers,

[bigjohnshea]

Still for sale.  Still the lowest prices anywhere.

Hope you all had a good weekend. 

Cheers,

Last chance here for these.

 

Tomorrow I'm withdrawling them.  Too many pikers here, making offers, asking for package deals, then not following through on the purchase. 

 

They may or may not pop up on ebay, but the price will be higher to cover ebay fees if they do.

[smicha6551]

I'll take Facts and Fundamentals if it's still available - PM sent.

[bigjohnshea]

F+Fs is still available.

 

End of the day EST they will be withdrawn.  

 

Thanks for looking. 

 

Cheers

[Grey Doffin]

I will take F & F; PM sent.

Grey

[smicha6551]

Not sure how F&F is still available when I had both asked for it and sent PM...

[bigjohnshea]

Sorry about that, but for some reason on these books I have had a number of people making offers, arranging deals, agreeing to buy, and not sending payment.  

 

You contacted me yesterday afternoon about buying it.  We arranged that you would send payment via paypal.  Twelve hours went by and you never sent payment.  I assumed you were doing as others have and simply didn't want it, but somehow decided you would arrange to buy it anyhow.  It wouldn't have been the first time that someone agreed to buy something and then flaked.

 

I apologize for this mix up but I have spent alot of time writing PMs and emails to people who act like they are going to buy something and never do.  This is specifically the reason why I am withdrawling this rest of these from sale at the end of the day.  This is eating up alot of time, and these are not at all high value items.  If it was a 500$ book or a 5000$ sword I would completely understand if you need time to get the money in order.  However, I would also expect you to notify me that you need that time, and not just arrange to make payment then not make payment.

 

It is sold now.  It will ship after the weekend as I am out of town at this point.  I will send you a tracking number.  You got a good deal on a great book.

 

Sorry again for the confusion.

Cheers,
