I would probably bid on some of these (James Kochalka books, Castle Waiting, Street Angel, Geisha), but my dad's account seems to be incapable of signing on to ebay.co.uk, plus I have no idea how pounds convert to dollars or if it would be crazy expensive to ship to Canada.

nps: no, shut up

homz: yes, it is indeed crazy expensive to ship to canada, i don't know why but it is. america is sort of expensive, but canada is just... fuck

don't worry though, the postage is usually covered by my doubling the price for overseas orders (seems to work 95% of the time, anyway)., often i make a slight profit although this does not happen with postage to canada) occasionally i'll lose money but hey; you win some, you lose some. if worse comes to worst i can always send via surface mail, that is slow as all hell (up to two months, if you're unlucky; a guy in canada who bought a heavy packet off me a bit ago just received his in two separate packages after a month) and to be honest it may not be worth it if you're impatient. my prices are nice and low though, although i secretly harbour a hope that the prices will all max out but that's just how ebay works

also as noted in my payment instructions i cannot combine purchases weighing over 2kg as the price skyrockets past that mark for some retarded reason and it's just easier and cheaper to send individual packages. royal mail restructured the postage system last year and now it's all about size as well as weight, or something. you may want to keep that in mind if you bid on "american elf", that book is pretty huge (under 2kg though)

as for conversion? change the ".co.uk" in the url i supplied to ".ca" (or a country extension of your choice) and i think it'll display conversion prices

yeah here you go

here's another one for amerikkkans

As I've already said, I'll try to get the Atomsmasher CD if my parents would allow me to buy something off the internet. :/

I too would love to purchase some Nadirabillia, but my empty wallet, coupled with unemployment and inexperience prevents this dream from being fulfilled. I am overwhelmed with feelings of melancholy and discomfiture. Such is life.

Thanks for the link! I got a job yesterday (dishwashing at a shiny new restaurant in the downtown of my neighboring city), so as long as nothing I want jumps super high in the next day I'll probably buy some of your books.

I don't really care how long it takes to ship as long as they come in good condition -- I tend to buy a lot of books and then take forever to read them, so I have a lot of backlog that I've just started catching up on.

Also, are these books you didn't like, or didn't like as much as what you're keeping, or what?

they are books that i like but i don't think i'm going to read again, and i need cash, so i am passing them on to anyone else who wants them in return for cash. i recommend them all!

speaking of, the release of milk & cheese vinyl figurines means i have added more stuff to my listings so i can raise money for those, too. milk and cheese are a carton of hate and a wedge of spite and i'm sure you can imagine that they are two of my favourite comic book characters

i wasn't comfortable with how shipping would work out and since i'm buying in canada, once you add shipping it's not an especially good deal for me anyways (and i'm unclear if it's even a good deal for you), so i chickened out. i'll keep an eye out for your auctions in the future, but you're probably right, buying from canada isn't a very good idea.

sry nads, i am a mercenary bastard

edit: i broke down and bought street angel

good

don't worry, i'm sending a freebie with the book so you get a little extra something for your trouble! it won't cost anything extra, it is small but probably impossible to get ahold of and i have one i don't need

you'll see what it is...
