Thanks! I started a different thread with the list in it, HERE. I wish I had thought to call it "Kat's Library Sale." Oh, well, next time!

Thanks! I was thinking a thread would be easier, too, as I could edit it, being a joeclonette and all.

I would think a thread would be easier - AND would allow "guests" to bid....

Books? I have never been able to resist a book. Sounds good to me.

I have been trying to figure out a way to list a bunch of used books on here, without having to do a separate auction listing for each book. There's too many! Rather than offer them on eBay or bidville, I'd much rather they go to Mudcatters, so see what you think of this:

I list them all in one auction listing. The first person to bid $5 on the individual book they want gets it and 100% of the $5 goes to Mudcat. I check the list everyday and revise it in a new posting, so that the ones which have been bid on at $5 are no longer listed. Because I will be sending out so many, at least I hope I will be, each successful bidder would also send me $5 to handle postage. So you'd have a book for $10, with half of that going to the Mudcat. Sure you could just give the Mudcat five bucks, but this way you get a "prize"...**BG**

Do you think it could work? Should I just do it in a thread like this or in the auction. Are any of you interested? I don't think there is anything spectacular, if I find anything like that, I'd list it separately. All different types will be listed.

Anyhow, let me know what you think, please. I've got two boxes under my table, now, and more where they came from. Thanks,
