    Default Good place to sell rare book?

    A couple months ago I happened upon a book called Don't Let Baseball Die by Art Hill, a book about the '78 Tigers. I'd never heard of it, and I was looking online last night and found out it's being sold online from $100-400! I'd really like to sell this book for aforementioned price, but I don't know where to look. Are there any merchants online that buy used books? Are there any DP members that want a book about the 78 Tigers?

    Ebay is bad for bookselling. Try selling thru www.abebooks.com or www.alibris.com, although alibris charges heavy fees

    Buy it from a bookstore in person..... and pay with cash. Wear a mexican dancing hat ,a pair of plastic glasses attached to a plastic nose and mustashe, and a Yale varsity jacket.

    Many used bookstores have a Subversive section. Might want to call first........... But you better use a pay phone and be sure to wear gloves when picking up the receiver.

    Thats what I am worried about. You can still order a copy, but you havw to get ti fro the publisher, which means the goverement gets your name and you get red flagged. Major suckagge. Book stores dont carry it anymore. I guess I would have to look in a used bookstore, but Id be lucky if they had it, and if they did, I would wear a treanch coat and sunglasses to the store.-crispy

    I had a text version of this I got off Kazaa. I have no way of knowing if it was complete or not. This is not may area of expertise but it may be easy to monitor the activity of certain user on Kazaa. It may not be a good option.

    Get the FMX Black Book: A Guide to Field Manufactured Explosives, it is much better if you are looking for something for practical reasons as opposed to novelty.

    The Anarchists cookbook is extremely putdated...most of the info is no longer valid, and veryt ijncomkplete to begin with. Also, much of the info is downright false to begin with and/or untested, as confessed by the author in some parts. Ok read, but do mucho research before attempting anything in it.....better yet, since Big Brother is watching us right now (since Game collectors have a tendency to be, you know.....terrorists), don't try anything in it
