Welcome and Introduce Yourself 5

[Dazmundo]

Morning all, My name is Darren and I've been collecting Discworld books etc since I was at uni, X years ago

Around the time 'Once more with footnotes' was published I tried to complete the collection of all PTerrys writtings, I know it was around that time as I have a copy and I didn't pay the current £500 asking price (Does anyone actually ever buy them for that price??)

Nice to meet you all

Hello and welcome Dazmundo/Darren! I hope you are making yourself at home here

It sounds like you are much more advanced with your collection than I am, which is probably just as well as my daughter has a habit of wandering out in to the garden with my books and leaving them out in the rain!

Hellooo and welcome Darren.

Regarding "Once More.....", I can't speak for other people but I can't see myself ever paying £500 for a book despite my love of Discworld. The closest I ever came to something similar was buying an original first edition book by Alastair Crowley which was around the £100 mark in a second hand shop (no idea if that was good value or not). Unfortunately, by the time I got the money together it had been sold.

As they say a rolling stone gathers no moss, Mad I tried really hard but the temptation was just too much.

Good to see you again, Mad and I like the new avatar.

[Penfold]

Good to see you back Mad. I guess you've been recovering from the Christmas period?

One keystroke out, that's all, just one, they are next to one another on the keyboard that's all I'm saying.

Thanks for the welcome back Tony and Penners, this is a busy time planning the summer stock and getting it ordered, thank goodness I don't have any customers due to the snow
