[QUOTE="prongbuck, post: 4994057, member: 54809"] I wan't sure where to post this but if there is a more appropriate forum I'd appreciate if a mod could move it there. I have 20 years of RPG books sitting in my attic and I am looking for suggestions on a way to get rid of them. They are in a large storage container and probably weigh close to 50 pounds! I also want to say that I am NOT here trying to find someone to buy this stuff. What I want is to find a good home for these books with someone (or some people) that will use them. I thought about giving them to the Salvation Army but I suspect that the books would end up tossed in the trash, which I could do myself if I wanted to. I tried talking to a few FLGS, they didn't seem interested in the books, but suggested I try eBay. I thought about eBay but selling the books as one large collection seems unreasonable since the shipping cost would be huge, and I don't want to bother listing a hundred different books and making a hundred trips to the post office to ship them. I also thought about listing them locally, in the newspaper and online classifieds, but my worry there is someone would take them just to resell them. I have many good memories of playing these games and want others to have the same opportunity I did to enjoy these books. Anyone have any ideas or suggestions? Here is a quick list of some of the books I have: D&D Basic set + Player/DM companion + Expert rules + Player/DM Guide to Immortals AD&D 1st Ed DMG + PHB + Monsters Manual + Dungeoneers Survival Guide AD&D 2nd Ed DMG + PHB + Monsters Manual (the one in the binder) ICE MERP 1st and 2nd Ed with a bunch of setting books Mechwarrior RPG Robotech RPG Battletech + Battle tech small units + Robotech + Citytech tabletop games Savage Worlds stuff (this is the most recent rpg stuff I have) ICE Shadow World + Character Law + Spell Law + Arms Law And a butt load of other books/modules... Again I would like to say that I am NOT trying to sell this stuff in the forum, what I want are suggestions on how I can get rid of it so I can hopefully get this into the hands of people who will use it! I would be perfectly happy giving this stuff away locally if I could be sure it would be used for someones enjoyment and not be resold. I won't lie and say that a little money for them wouldn't be nice but that is not my main concern, I want to get them out of my attic to people who would enjoy them! Thanks [/QUOTE]
