For the discerning buyer, there's always the $25 pile (with free shipping):

Somehow I get the feeling that all the crap that doesn't sell on its own would be in this lot.

Gee, something my online business needs to get into...selling a big pile of trash instead of throwing it away. Genius!!!! :roll:

Not always. Got my Dragonlord there for $40. Not to mention a bunch of stupidly rare items for a smoking price.
If you call or e-mail Aaron and talk to him, you can get much better pricing.

If you hit a Rowsdower, you get to keep it.

Like Frank (Deadlord) said, sometimes you CAN find a bargain (which I have)...

A Wizard is never late, Frodo Baggins, nor is he early. He arrives precisely when he means to.

I've found a number of bargains there myself and have probably spent over $1K in total.

No matter how good someone is, there's always some things that slip through the cracks.

It's usually a case of right place, right time.

I agree, generally his prices are high!!

Don't get me wrong, I've had nothing but great service from them and have had some great purchases from there.

I usually only buy from there though if I'm too lazy to wait for it to come up on auction,or I need extra help finding something.

What...no takers? :lol:

This part of the terms cracks me up:

We will help you load it (meaning we will help, not do it all for you). If you want us to load your vehicle for you, 100%, you don't have to lift a thing: that can be arranged for an additional charge.

I wonder just how much that additional charge is? Titan Games' legendary customer service at work once again. :wink:

There is a lot of crap in there...but it wouldn't be a bad buy at, say, half the opening bid ($200 instead of $400). In that case you might make double the price just bringing it to used bookstores in bits and pieces.

I dunno, might be worth it to actually see Tonya have to make some effort to get her money. :lol:

At a dollar a book to watch her pack it, I don't think you are getting your money's worth.

I contemplate bidding and stopping at every used book store between Waterloo and Battle Creek on the way back. Even at $800, I'm sure it works out to less than $1 a book.

I thought that myself...approx 2800 items / 400= $1.75p/book your right $200 would be better
