War and War Heroes for Memorial Day Weekend - CLOSED

[EC ed]

In honor of Memorial Day, I'll be going through my boxes over the next few days and offering up some books that are connected to war and/or war heroes....mostly SA, but also some GA and a few BA - everything raw.

 

MY RULES:

 

- No PL/HOS members, or any other questionable characters at my judgment. Aside from that, the first taker wins, whether in the thread or via PM, based on time stamp (in PMs, a book is taken as of the instant that terms have been agreed to by both me and the buyer); I'll mark books SOLD in the thread as soon as reasonably possible...don't assume that a book is yours until I confirm.

- If time is needed for a particular PM discussion/negotiation to play out, I've been known to put a book ON HOLD in the thread; my definition of ON HOLD is that the book is not available for purchase by anyone else until the book comes OFF HOLD;

- I'll take PayPal, personal checks, or USPS money orders;

 

- Shipping:

• USA: shipping via priority mail, $5 for up to 5 books (bomb-proof flat rate envelope), $10 for 6 or more books (bomb-proof flat rate box)
• Canada, UK or Australia: we'll figure incremental shipping charges for boxed trackable shipping (either first class or priority mail international, depending on package value and destination); please don't ask me to understate value on customs forms
• other international destinations, my apologies

All books are complete with covers and centerfolds attached at both staples with no known restoration, unless otherwise noted.

 

100% happiness guarantee - if you don't like your books for any reason, return them to me as purchased for a full refund within a reasonable time frame.

Since Nick Fury was a WWII hero before he got involved in S.H.I.E.L.D, I'm going to put some post-war Fury in here...
