I actually made an oops, I already have the Babes & Sucklings, just not as nice a copy.  If you want that one, I'm OK with you grabbing it instead.  I'm sure I'll hit plenty more I want as the sale continues.

If nobody else wants it, I'll stand by my take, of course.

Thanks! I believe I have that one but I'll slide out that box later and see if it's an upgrade (or how far the cover has receded since last I looked at it  ).

Lol. That works for me. I have a copy of Deep Space already, so it worked out great! Thanks!
