Hey Bob,

OK. Thanks. I don't really want to part with any of the little
collection of older books I have anyway. But SWMBO is on about "those
smelly" books form time-to-time, and I always shut her up by
suggesting they are real collectors items and worth a lot when I die.
So, I hate to be a liar. I looked on Ebay a few minutes ago, and the
highedt bid for a Sheet Metal forming one is 76 bucks. I think I have
one of those, but the value of the rest seems low.

Take care.

Brian,

I advertised my 10 volume set of Audel's Electric on RCM a few weeks ago for
$60. True, they were in ratty condition with most covers chewed on but all
pages were in good condition. (A fact disclosed in my ad). My ad failed to
get any response. I based my price on the $110 price I saw on a set in
"new" condition in a bookstore several years ago. So I guess they are worth
what you can get for them. I gave mine away to a friend.

Hey Bob,

Lemme know if/when these do go on Ebay. I've got some older than
that, in good condition, and I'd like to see what the present value
might be.

Take care.

Forties vintage -- anyone interested before they go on Ebay? I'm
posted this for a friend of mine who is selling off her book
collection. If you are interested, give me an email off-list and we
can discuss price. If no interest in the next few days, she's going to
post it on ebay.

Thanks,

Bob
