Im looking for a rare book!!!!!!!

This is a LONG shot.

But does anyone here have a book called "Flying Saucers and the Three men" by chance?? If so, reply! I'll buy it off you or trade for it or something!

If nothing else, keep an eye out for me.

Its an old book, it was printed back in 1962 and then reprinted again in uhh...1968 I believe. I need it for my UFO/Paranormal/Crypto book collection and I cannot find it anywhere for any reasonable price.

$102 on Amazon. Prepare to pay out the ass for hard copies of out-of-print media. I paid $80 for a CD from 1996. An ebook, if available, might be your best bet.

Yeah man. People are wanting anywhere from 80-150 dollars for this book /sigh

Do you have old used book stores? Theres a massive one in Detroit that had some of the Nine Princes of Amber series when it was out of print. If I make a trip down there soonish (and Id like too) I will keep an eye out

Maybe call them, i did the search on their site but I doubt its super accurate the place is a warehouse of old musty dusty books!

The one used book store that i knew of in my area closed down a few years back sadly.

You could try calling Bookman's book exchange in AZ ( there are a few of them) but they are Walmart sized book exchange stores, might be willing to send to you if they have it.

One of my most favorite stores ever.

I found one on eBay for 15 bucks in "very good" condition! Hopefully I win the bid lol

My last year in Flagstaff we got that huge snowstorm (not that that was rare, but we did get the 51 inch one) that collapsed our Bookman's roof. I never realized it was a local chain. I loved that store!

I remember Booksmans. Those things were all over the Phoenix area when I lived there. It seemed like there was a book store of some kind everywhere down there.

win.

Its weird, I got so into Amazon that I forgot all about eBay. That was actually my first transaction off of eBay since 2001.

I need to start checking eBay more often I guess.

Half.com is now a subsidiary of eBay, and I get a lot of my books through there at usually less than half price. Often cheaper.

Kelefane 13 years ago

hah, the book I won off of eBay was also signed by the author.

double win!
