Post subject:  HUGE book sale - and you can have them shipped to you

A friend of mine in the Seattle area is selling all of her stock. Almost half a million books. I took home as many as I could pack into my car today to begin the stock for my future bookstore--she insisted that I take as many books as I could fit in my Porsche for free. Anything she doesn't sell by the end of the month is going to be recycled.

So save the books! Go to her website at www.oncesoldtales.com or call her. Paperbacks are $1 and hardcovers are $2, or you can pay $1.50 per pound if you prefer.

Here is an ad with more information: http://seattle.craigslist.org/skc/com/3788759827.html

Nice. On the site, though, it still has the ordinary prices...

Yes, you'll have to call her to place an order. I doubt they have time to update the website...they have been swamped with people coming into the store.

I take it the shipping is actual shipping costs?

She said she can ship anywhere in the world.

I don't know what she'd charge for shipping, you'd have to ask her.

I emailed, and they said that they weren't shipping books. o.O

Huh...you didn't get the owner, did you? She told me directly that she can ship them.

What she said: "I can ship them anywhere on the planet."

However, this does not apply to books by weight, so if you asked about that, perhaps that is the confusion. The $1.50 a pound is for in-store purchases only.

Oh, this is cool! And I live, like, practically next door to this place... awesome. I'll have to see what sorts of books I can find.

I don't see a number to call on the website. :?

And I guess I have to figure out if they actually ship books....

I called them; they said they ship books, but not for the discount sale price. If you're buying online, it's the price listed on the website.

Ah, so that's the confusion. Well, they're still cheap because shipping is included in those prices, and shipping generally costs a couple dollars per book.

I thought they were shipping the books at sale prices, in which case I assumed they'd have to charge actual shipping costs because the sale prices wouldn't even cover the shipping alone.

So this will be going on until most of the books are sold? Or is there a specific date?

Hopefully until the end of the month. By the end of the month they all have to be gone somehow.

I emailed asking if the 'five books free for babies up until 12th grade' rule applied to me, since I'm working on college classes and but I'm fifteen. I never got a reply. :P Do you happen to have any idea?

No, I don't. Sorry.
