Tooting my own horn this time

If I buy my own copy, send it to you, include return postage, would you sign it? That's what I was thinking.

I think that would be nice, and I don't mind paying shipping both ways.

Thanks, Barry

That's what I was thinking.

I don't want a discount.

barry,

I'll be glad to do it that way if you want, but you may want to check shipping costs, added to the book plus tax, etc.

Thin kerf light saber or regular?

LOL. I said I can't match their price...but add shipping and tax to Amazon's price and I'd probably have to get $18.50 each to make a buck a copy.

I'll send you a 20 dollar bill in the mail to get an autographed copy. Just tell me when. I got your address from your resume page. Nice one!

If my sister (herbologist and now N.D., book monger) is any indication, book dealers (and anyone purchasing a volume of 10 or more books per title) generally get a 50+% discount. With Amazon, any order over $25 ships free, so your costs would be minimal, Charlie, and they may give you an even better discount as the author.
