Cool! What a score! If you're planning on reselling them I'll buy The Earl by Cecelia Holland and The King's Grey Mare by Rosemary Hawley Jarman if they're still available from you!

You would have had me beat.

Yeah I was hoping it wouldn't get that far, but I was surprised how "little" it went for!

No problem! I knew what it was about! I've been wanting to purchase it for a while now. I think it was Boswellbaxter that recommended it to me. For some reason or other I just don't have it yet.

Oh good! I hate it when I make mistakes and it only dawned on me after I posted that and you had already replied.

I may be a week or more before I get the books, then I have to do the laborious job of writing the auction pages for each one, which includes making notes on any problems the book(s) have, which in some cases can be a huge amount! I'm all for full disclosure of problems so no one can come back and say, "you didn't say there was a big rip on page so and so" or "underlining on page so and so".

I just won another auction, 3 books from Canada, I was the only bidder and the shipping will put me around $20 but one of them was a very rare book about Katherine Howard by Jean Evans, I believe called "Tudor Tragedy", I've never seen copies of this for sale or can find any online...

"The Tudor Tragedy" by Jean Evans - published in 1972 by Robert Hale & Co, London

"The Young Elizabeth" by Jennett & Francis Letton - published by Harper Bros ©1953

"Scotland's Queen: Mary Stuart" by Marguerite Vance - stated first edition published 1962 by E P Dutton

I'm still waiting for my 48 books I won so I don't know if these will get here in time for the auctions or will have to be added another time.
