Cleaning out the Pre Code Crime boxes a bit. Sometimes you just have too much... A nice pile of rather affordable mayhem. A lot of great titles and a few scarcer ones. Will probably run a couple days. Hopefully, something for you criminals.

Rules:

No problem children or HOS members.

Postage starts out at USPS Ground Advantage at $8. and works up from there depending on how many books you buy and where you are. I don't make money on postage and will quote as affordable prices as possible. 

I prefer to sell only to US addresses but might make an exception if I know you.

Payment by PayPal, Checks or Money orders.

First :takeit: in the thread gets it. So if you want it, hit it first.   

Returns: No hassle returns within two weeks from when tracking says it was delivered. Return postage is on you unless I make a gross error and in that case I will "man-up" and pay return postage. I don't expect any returns though as I've only had just a few in 40 years. 

This stuff all comes from a smoke filled, varmit infested, mouldy junk house. (Just kidding!) Here we go...
