Books for Trade/Sale/Giveaway

Posted on 17. Apr, 2008 @ 12:41 pm by in About, Books Views: 238

If you haven’t noticed the blurb in the upper right, I am trying to reduce the number of books in my room.

A mostly correct list of the books available is here.

If you’re interested in any, contact me via the Talk2Me form, but be SURE to include your replyto email address in the BODY of the form as well as in the email field. As noted on the page, for some reason this form  likes to drop the information in the email field, so I often receive nice comments with no way to reply to the sender.

So if you’ve ever tried to contact me and never heard back, that’s why.  (This means you Hamish! Please try again!)

I’m not trying to make money on  this, so I’ll sell cheap, and even give some away. In the case that I want to trade, I’m willing to give away 2 or 3 books for 1 of yours. I’m really just trying to reduce the amount of space taken up by my stash.

I can meet up in Umeda, Honmachi, or Namba, and other places in Osaka to deliver the goods.

Anyway, hope to hear from you!

    Some how I think that books left in the wild in Japan would quickly end up in lost and found! People are so tidy…

    I’ll give it a look though!

    Book Off is my favorite place to go dump books

    You can also put a sticky note on the front cover that says “Free book. Please read me.” In Japanese too of course :)

    Your local library is also an option too. Every one I’ve ever been to has accepted English language books. Then lots of people can enjoy your literary collection!

    Very cool of you to give these away!
