[CLOSED] I Bought a Collection! - The Awaited Annex Thread: Classics 0

[Readcomix]

As promised in my recent "I Bought a Collection" thread, which recently closed, I am segregating out the Classics titles into a separate, smaller thread. This allows me to close the main thread, get books to those who are done, and offer these for those who might be interested. Anyone of course is welcome, whether you bought in the main thread or are just interested in these. I just didn't want to let a long thread get any longer as I figured at least some of the takers there would want to wrap up and be done.

Payment is Check or Money Order; I do not have Paypal.

First wins; tie/indeterminate goes to the thread.

Shipping: U.S. Priority at $8 for up to 8-12 books (cardboard sangweech or flip n ship mailer in a Priority Legal Envelope) or $15 for a whole stack (Medium Flat Rate Box). 

Don't be listy  including the little one in my head.

Returns: Sure, just notify me within three days and get it back to me in the same shape on your dime.
