Cool story!

 

I sold my entire collection right before law school to my then boss. Years later I ran into him and he offered to let me re-purchase the entire collection for what he had paid me for it. Never took him up on it.

[porcupine48]

Call him up!

Great story.

 

Sold my collection in 1995. The only ones I would remember would be the tatty ones - like ASM 50 with tape pull or FF 2 with tape on the inside cover that I put there aged about 14. Would still love them back though.

Congrats! I wouldn't be able to stop myself from chasing that guy out the door

Now that is a great story!

I had a similar story unfold a few years ago where I was able to pick up two very sentimental books I had sold, and found them again 16 years later. Great story, nothing like getting those long-lost books back! Congrats!

Cool story and a great looking book. Are you going to grade it?

Cool story and a great looking book. Are you going to grade it?

 

I've got a handful of books I'm thinking of sending off, but I don't know if this would be one of them -- I'm not sure I want to let this one out of my grasp again, even for grading!

Stories like this make me not want to sell anything. It's like validation of the hoarder instinct!
