::The Sage suddenly drops his quill after reading this message, then quickly gathers his traveling robes and prepares himself for a quick jaunt to Sigil, then back to the material plane appear near a certain used bookstore located in a place call USA.::
Thanks for that Mournblade, I look forward to hearing from you.

New Jersey, eh? [rubs chin thoughtfully] I suppose that's within some reasonable distance. My father occasionally drives my brat I mean sister up there for swim meets. Perhaps I'll tag along next time . . . .
Edit:
I forgot to add this. Mournblade, to find out how to hyperlink, go the the FAQ page to see how. Or, just click 'quote' on any message that contains a hyperlink (such as this one) to see the code that was typed in.
I tried to do an example of this using pieces of the code, with spaces so that it wouldn't be activated, but the message went all screwy. Sorry. |

Thanks for the information Mournblade. As it turns out, I have a friend who lives very close to that particular bookshop. Now if I can just get him to do a 'little' favor for me .
And Mournblade, if you want to post a hyperlink, just use this format for the link in your message post - [*="addresshere"]linkwordhere[/*]. Just replace the two asterisk with the word URL in the example for the link to work.
Hope that helps,

Oh, very good format, Sage. Wish I'd thought of that. I'll have to remember it . . . .
 Grr . . . I can see the sign for 'science fiction' in the corner of one of those pictures . . . . so tantalizing . . . .  |

Well, since you asked,
I would like to replace my copies of the Moonshae Trilogy, and maybe #4, and #8 of the Harper's series.
Can you help?.

| Maybe I was searching wrong, or their search engine doesn't work right. Either way, I couldn't find anything. |

Well, it's been a while since I made that promise on the previous page, and I have to admit that I haven't gone to that particular store that I referred to. However, there's another store that's near to my college, one that is 33.3% owned by a family friend. (It's a sort of joint store -- three dealers that share the same retail space. Makes finding a book strange (you have to look in three different areas) but I like the place.)
Anyway, I stopped in there today (yesterday now) right before a class. It turned out that there was far more in the way of Forgotten Realms than I had at all expected; I didn't have time to write down all the information. That is, I got the names and conditions, but didn't have time for prices. However, except for two, they'll all be in the $3-4 range.
Table of Conditions
Horrible: Falling apart (not going to appear on any list in the future).
Bad: Not taken care of very well, even for a used book, but not falling apart.
Fair: Average for a used book.
Good: Better than average for a used book.
Excellent: Looks like it was still on a retail shelf.
Arcane Age: Netheril Trilogy
Book 2: Dangerous Games (Condition: Good)
Book 3: Mortal Consequences - Condition: Good)
Avatar Trilogy
Book 1: Shadowdale (Copies: 2) (Condition: Good, Good/Fair)
Book 3: Waterdeep (Copies: 2) (Condition: Good, Good)
Cleric Quintet
Book 3: Night Masks (Condition: Good)
Book 4: Fallen Fortress (Condition: Good)
Dark Elf Trilogy
Book 1: Homeland (Copies: 2) (Condition: Good, Fair)
Book 2: Exile (Copies: 2) (Condition: Good, Good)
Book 3: Sojourn (Condition: Excellent)
Druidhome Trilogy
Book 1: Prophet of Moonshae (Condition: Good)
Book 3: Druid Queen (Condition: Excellent)
Empires Trilogy
Book 1: Horselords (Condition: Good)
Evermeet: Island of Elves (hardback) (Condition: Good/Fair) (Cover wrinkled)
Harpers
Book 4: Night Parade (Condition: Good)
Icewind Dale Trilogy
Book 2: Streams of Silver (Copies: 3) (Condition: Good, Good, Fair)
Book 3: The Halfling’s Gem (Copies: 2) (Condition: Fair, Fair)
Icewind Dale Trilogy Box Set (Condition: Excellent)
Maztica Trilogy
Book 2: Viperhand (Condition: Good)
Moonshae Trilogy
Book 1: Darkwalker on Moonshae (Condition: Good)
Book 2: Dark Wizards (Condition: Good)
Book 3: Darkwell (Condition: Excellent)
Realms of the Arcane (Condition: Good)
Realms of the Deep (Condition: Good)
The Threat from the Sea
Book 2: Under Fallen Stars (Condition: Good)
If you want any of these, contact me at Pawn_of_Prophecy@hotmail.com. Identify yourself in the subject line; I get a lot of junk mail, and I don't want to delete a 'good' letter.
Books are on a first-come, first-serve basis. In the case of multiple copies, those in best conditions go first. You will pay all expenses, but (as I mentioned) there will be no middleman charge on my part. All I want is to not have to pay for it myself. I'm not looking for any sort of profit: this is all as a service to my fellow scribes. |

This is certainly a very good listing Bookwyrm. Especially considering the older/out-of-print, harder to find trilogies. I only wish now that I could take advantage of this, hence I no longer have any concerns in replacing my copies.
Although I hope some of the other scribes who are missing these books make the effort, and take advantage of this great offer of assistance.
Bookwyrm, this is a very generous notion on your part. You should be commended.
May your learning be free and unfettered

Thanks, but all I've done is list 'em. I haven't bought anything. So, if people want these books, they should ask for them before someone else gets them. Especially the ones in 'Excellent' condition.
Since I have several holes in my collection, I might get some myself after I start my teaching job next month (if they're still there) and I get some extra cash. |
