Okay, gang.....help me out here... A few years ago a lady in the campground bought a bunch of books from me at a campground yard sale. Had like 50 cents on each one.....she was so excited and told me that anytime I had paperback books I wanted to sell, to let her know....well, since then she has bought a few from me here and there......so, now, my sister gave me a bag of paperback books at the beginning of the summer and I told this lady that when I was done with them, would she be interested in buying them....she said YES.......Now, you all know that to buy a paperback book at the book store NEW is going to cost you at least $5-$6 sometimes more....only 3 people have read these books, me, my sis, and her friend....all are in good shape......well, this lady came by this morning, to get the books...(seems she was buying them for a friend, or so she says...suspect she is selling them herself at her "antique shop".) and said that 50 cents per book is too much and that "her Friend" can get them for 25 cents.....now there are about 20 books in that bag and I told her she could have the whole bag for $10....or 50cents per book.....she turned it down and then asked if I had alot of Nora Roberts books in the bag....I said 1 or 2, but that was all....well, then she said she'd think about it then she left........Now, tell me, is 50 cents too much to ask per book? I just don't get people sometimes......It's okay with me that she didn't buy them, but her actions kinda' ticked me off, cause she's been bugging me about the books for about 3 weeks.....and you know what.....I can take them with me on the road and "donate" them to a trading library at the campgrounds we visit......there I know folks will enjoy them......it's just the thing that she wanted to "buy" them.....okay, I'm done venting....lol.....
