Think before you throw those old books out

[jacjak]

iv just been having abit of a sort out as im running out of bookshelf space and out of interest thought id get some of the older books value only to find some of them are worth between 300 to 500 pounds a piece nearly fell over backward and to think the missus wanted me to stick them on the car boot sale

dont feel so guilty about having the day off now.

but just goes to show dont get rid off stuff until your sure you know what your getting rid off

how did you value them- I mean is that e bay price or specialist bookshop price

specialist dealer opinion if they went in to a specialist auction and it was old copies of charles darwin that were worth the most but some victorian botany books i have apparently are worth abit but the dealer wanted to do some home work on them before he give value on them
