Team Meteorite:

Before I offer these on eBay, I thought perhaps a list member with an
interest in astronomy might enjoy owning this trilogy of imminently
collectible hardcover books. All three are in like-new condition with
only slight creasing on the dust covers. They were published in 1978.
I've simply never gotten around to reading them after thirty-four
years.


Where does the time go?


I live in Costa Rica and my mother living in her double-wide in
Florida just told me to "get rid of those books, I need the space!",
so one way or the other I need to move them from where they are
stored.


Volume One covers Andromeda to Cetus, Volume Two is Chameleon throught
Orion, Volume Three details the stars of Pavo thru Vulpecula.


They apparently sell for around $55 for all three volumes when new. I
checked and the post office wants about $8 to ship them 'Media Mail'
within the United States and $60 for First Class to Europe and beyond.


If anyone would enjoy reading and owning them for half-price, I will
accept "Buy them now" _at_ $35 including shipping to an address in the
USA.


Those of you 'living dangerously' can 'take a chance' and make me an
offer. I'll even consider a couple of grams of a pretty LL3.2 if that
helps :>)


Paypal will be the preferred money manager for this transaction. My 82
year-old mother in Fort Myers will be my preferred courier to take
them to the post office. C'mon Mom, how much space do three books take
up, anyway!?


Here is a link to a honest review of these volumes with a photo of the books.
