BOOK SALE: INSTRUCTIONS & LINKS

10/14 MORNING UPDATE: All bought titles have now been removed from the lists (rather than struck through) for ease of reading. We're up past 1,000 books sold, but there's still a wealth of excellent material available. We've also dropped the prices in the book set section.

9/23 EVENING UPDATE: Welcome to readers coming here from Neil Gaiman's blog. We're going back to striking through books that aren't available so there's no confusion as to what you can and cannot buy. We're having a ton of orders coming in and will be processing them throughout the day and into tomorrow. (And see my blog entry.) Here’s where we stand as of right now, evening of the 21st, approximately:

1,300+ BOOKS FOR SALE
950 BOOKS SOLD (early adoption and public sale)
350 BOOKS STILL AVAILABLE

Also note this blog entry for stuff just added now, 9/21, at 11am EST

This ain't gonna make us any money, but it's an interesting assortment of poetry, fiction, and nonfiction.

Anyone who orders books from us will get various small freebies included from a stack of postcards, bookmarks, figurines, comic books, and other cool stuff. (None of which will affect your shipping cost.)

Anyone who orders more than $40-worth of books can choose a book for free from the One Dollar Book list.

Please note the following:

(1) No orders under $10.
(2) Send us an email (to vanderworld at hotmail.com with a cc to buzzcity at yourvillage.com) with the list of books you want to order, to make sure they are still available. (We operate on a first-come, first-served basis.)
(3) Shipping and handling fees will be estimated once we know what books you want to order. We will ship anywhere in the world, via the US Post Office (media rate, first class, or priority). Please include your snail mail addy with your order, and, if in the US, whether you want something other than media rate.
(4) Payment can be by check, M.O. or Paypal. Once we confirm your order, we will provide shipping options and costs, as well as additional payment information.

In addition to what’s being offered on the book lists, we are offering the following specials (while supplies last):

Leena Krohn’s amazing novel Tainaron in a gorgeous hardcover, for only $10.

My collection Secret Life Redux, in trade paperback, for only $10.

Thanks! We want all of these books to go to good homes!
