    I've decided a minimalist lifestyle is the way forward and I'm getting rid of all my junk. Figured I'd list all my design books here before going to Amazon. Most of them are going to be silly cheap, but to start with I'll list the rare ones. For now, would anyone be interested in Tschicholds 'The Form of the Book'? Prices are here on amazon.

    I'm going to suggest £50, but will happily take offers just to shift it (same goes for the rest).

    Jesus Christ, £50 for a trade paperback? That's mental. It's good book, I've got it, had no idea it was worth anything though.

  3.  
    What you selling then Jim? I ain't giving you £50 for that book, but I might give you 10p and a bag of crisps for summat else.
  4.  
    Haha, well you can all fuck off then. It's hard to find and out of print -- I said I'd take offers!
  5.  

    Haha, I think you caught me surprised Jim. I've had that book a while, bought it second hand too, but I think I paid about £20 for it. Never ceases to amaze me how some titles seem to pick up weird valuations. I've got a few of those Phaidon Movies of the X0s... books, according to what some folks are selling them for on Amazon, they're worth over ton!

    What other books you got in your stash?

  6.  
    Well, come on then, what other crap you got???
  7.  
    Erm, hang about, I'm flogging graphic novels at the moment, design books is second, before CDs and DVDs. I assume there's no historical interest in out of date web design books? (you know, the ones that say things like 'there's this great new technology coming out soon called Futuresplash, it;s going to shit all over animated gifs' -- I actually have one that says that). They should probably go straight to the charity shop...
