A lot of time and money went into buying / grading, etc.
Scanning, uploading, and posting 3,000 images will take more time.
Why not sell a few books while scanning the rest of them?
Also, we learn as we go.
If I put up all of those scans only to have my thread deleted twice I think I would have lost it.
Now I only have to put the scans up once.
If I had the opportunity to go back and do it over again perhaps I would have done it differently but in the last few weeks I learned some lessons and made some customers happy. So in the end it seems things will work out OK.
