    2 rare books up for grabs

    Here are a couple of rare/out of print books I am selling. These books cost me a lot of money originally, so I am starting them at the price I originally bought them at.

    why do you think they're rare philbert? You can still get both these titles at amazon, or barnes and noble, or brick and mortar bookstores.
    Kung Fu is good for you.

    No, actually those two books have been out of print for quite awhile. I've seen them sell for some pretty high prices before too.

    What he said.

    Though I did pick them up in a brick and mortar store. And spent $25 on each.

    ****, I wish the Obata book's price hadn't taken off like that. I owned that book but had it destroyed by a friend's child. It would have been cool to get my hands on it, but clearly the Ebay croud wants it and has more money than me.

    Well like I said, I spent $25 for the frigging book so I want to at least get back what I spent. Not saying its a bad book. That and I like money haha. If I spent $3 on it, I might have been willing to let it go for less. I got rid of a bunch of Japanese books last week, like 6 total, making only $61 off them.

    Unfortunately, the French text would not be helpful to me.

    I went ahead and relisted some of the other books that didn't sell, this time none with reserves, though I started one at $25 since I spent $25 for it. The Whtie Crane Gung Fu I bought for the sole purpose of selling back on eBay so I need to get my money back on it.
