I definately did but tomorrow looks even better. I made a deal to buy a book for $100 that sells for $830 to $2000 on Amazon. Man I hope this guy doesn't realize what he's got in his hands. This one book could potnetially put me back to even on the money I've invested in getting the business going so far or maybe even way ahead into the profit area.
I'm supposed to pick it up tomorrow.

Some books are really collectable Clyde, I have a mate in work who had a copy of some old book, I think it was called "The 39 steps", he bought it from some car boot sale but it turned out that the book was dated 1915. He paid 50 pence for it and sold it for about £500 to a collector. It was a first edition and more valuable or something... Dunno, can't remember more about it but he makes quite a bit of cash like that by buying old books, cameras and ornaments from church fetes and car boot sales.

Well I'm a bit upset the bastard backed out of the deal. Oh well. >:(

Well I'm getting over it. I found a first english edition of Planet of the Apes in my collection worth about $400 and a very early edition of A Clockwork Orange which I haven't figure out how much it's worth yet.
