I found this set of books yet again. I'm writing about it here to let other booksellers know about it and also, well, frankly, to help plug my book of such items I find regularly that make me $50-$100.
On these, after Amazon fees, I made: $86.70

But first, let's talk about this book set. It's a classic, written by both Will and Ariel Durant, a married couple who must have really liked each other to work all day together, lol. No, just kidding, I know some couples who pull that off.
If you read this whole set, you will know just about anything and can be the most fun know-it-all at dinner parties.
It really is colorful; it looks like this (a snapshot of it how one listing of it looks on Amazon.com as of today):
Notice how the *lowest* price here...the lowest! is $98.98
Come to think of my, my $86 sale actually was a set with one of the 11 books missing. So that probably would have gone into the $90 dollar range if it had that.
But, that also tells us that if you find bits and pieces of this set, at yard sales or whatnot, you should still buy them. You'll probably come across the rest of them soon.
Well, that's enough for today's story.
And, if you do want to buy my book, which explains the items I find the most and make the best money on (both of those two things together, that is, not one or the other), learn more bout it and buy it if you want from here: or go to http://www.yardsalers.net/frequent_flips_sales.asp.
