[QUOTE="Nellisir, post: 6131578, member: 70"] Here's the full and up-to-date list of my haul in the last 10 days, with authors. Grand total? Less than $90. I might go back next weekend for $.10 prices, but the pickings are pretty sketchy. Abundant if you need fire-starting material, but sketchy. (That said, general fiction and mystery can still have good stuff, so that's what I'd be looking at. SF/fantasy is usually tapped out.)
