Just out of curiosity, why are you getting rid of 'em? Have you memorized 'em and have no need of 'em now? Did they get wet and are soggy? (LOL)

I’m with you Scooby! I sort of wouldn’t mind a few…but are you in the states? Do you want us to send a check? There are some questions here…
 
Have you ever tried [Paperback Swap? ](Join the Club and Swap Books for Free! - PaperBackSwap.com)

This has been my all time favorite internet find. If you join through the link I’ve provided, I’ll get a credit and be able to get a free book! If you prefer, you can just go straight to their website. Anyhow, you load ALL the books you want to get rid of (hard covers too!). You will be given 2 free credits after you load a certain amt. (10 I think), and then you can can order any book that any person has listed with that credit. They will mail it to you. And you will “pay” them with a credit. When someone orders from you, you just mail to them, and they “pay” with a credit. The postage comes out in the wash! I LOVE…LOVE…LOVE this! It’s the best recycling…

ALSO, don’t forget to p/u books that you wouldn’t even read at garage sales, and flip them here. My library is full of treasured books!

So, not only can you get rid of the many books you have here, but then you can get all new ones, at very little expense to you!!!

Best…
 
I would definitely try it but the link didnt work for you to get your credit.
 
I’d take them all, if the price is right. I’m not concerned about their condition, so long as the text is legible.

How much did you want for them?
 
I also have the book Aquinas by Eleonore Stump.

I haven’t really thought about a price for all of them in bulk. Interestingly, I also got a message from a librarian interested in all of them.

As a matter of fact, I have many more theology books in my attic, if one is interested.

I would say, just throwing out a number, that I would sell all of them for $90, plus shipping (which, unfortunately, may be quite high). Some of the books are quite hard to find.
 
I must have keyed it wrong… paperbackswap.com

No worries about me… I just LOVE sharing this site. You could also sell on Amazon??? And don’t forget, although slow, you can ship books MEDIA mail. Which is usually cheaper!
 
I am adding a few books to this list:

The Heart, An Analysis of Human and Divine Affectivity - Dietrich von Hildebrand
The Bondage of the Will - Martin Luther
Common Sense 101: Lessons from G.K. Chesterton - Dale Ahlquist
Lead Kindly Light - Thomas Howard
Why I am a Christian - Paul K. Hauffman
Apologia Pro Vita Sua - John Henry Newman
Christian Theology: an Introduction - Alister McGrath
Orthodox Study Bible
 
You re very generous. I have some of these myself and they are quality works. I won’t ask for any of them, since I live in the Philippines. I have given away books myself and in fact gave away 1,000 from my collection a few years ago when I lived in the U.S., If there are one left you don’t know what to do with (though I doubt this after seeing the replies), you could always send them to the library of an orthodox Catholic University, maybe at a smaller or newer school which would be more likely to need them. Sending books book rate is very inexpensive.
 
Hey Exodus. I’d still really like to buy Aquinas by Stump if we could do it through Paypal (or some other way where I can use credit card). Best.
