Hi All,

I have in my flat in Poznan somewhere around 400 books all in English.

The vast majority are non fiction and include a wide range of subjects from sport to childrens and gardening to massage!!

Being honest these are not the best books in the world but if anyone wants them you can have them for nothing as long as you collect.

They must be gone by Thursday, so if anyone is interested post here or pm me.

By the way most of these books are hardback so they weigh quite a bit!!!!

Is there anything about science? Particularly, maths and physics.

If you can't find anyone you can always sell them to a second hand bookshop, I'm pretty sure there's a few of them in Poznań.

If you want a hand with transporting them, we could easily give you a hand? Should be no bother to take them all between us if it makes it easier for him? I'm sure Jodie wouldn't mind having a nice library... :D

You lucky sod! I've got exactly the opposite problem.

That very much depends on what the books are.

There is a bookshop on the Stary Rynek beside dom vikingow restaurant - (god my spelling is awful) they have a good secondhand english section, they may take everything and may even pay you for the books.

Ok thanks for that. I know where the shop is. I didn't realise they had a second hand section. Any idea how much they charge for second hand books?

In the U.S. I usually find used books starting at $1.00 & up. The second hand store will probably only pay you pennies on the dollar, unless they're all very rare books and in excellent condition.

Honk if you love PF :)
