Title: slightly scuffed BTP books (returns), at 20% of retail!
Post by: Boston on December 21, 2008, 05:47:08 PM
Howdy all,

The publishing business often feels like "on consignment" when
dealing with the major wholesalers, and returns are common.
I cannot resell them as new, thus I will discount them to 20% of cover price.

Not by 20%, but to 20% of cover price.

Condition is generally very decent, with slight scuffs or bends.  (Some look nearly new!)
A few are more hurt, but that's uncommon.  All pages are intact, regardless.

Such books have been sold on eBay, regularly fetching 40-45% of retail.
Thus, you've a chance to double your $, or distribute them as gifts.

I will sell them at the below prices, but only in quantity, plus shipping.
What I have in mind is the medium-size Priority Mail box, filled up.
This is now confirmed to contain 38 Y&P or 32 BP.
(You can mix these titles per carton, such as half-and-half.)

S&H per Priority Mail carton is $12.
Terms:  cash with order.

Here's what I've counted up so far:

________________

You & The Police!   $3.00   quantity:  about 150
(all are the 1996 edition, which is 90% good enough for most readers)
These have the cartoons by Carrol O. Murphy, which I hadn't room for in the 2005 edition.


Bulletproof Privacy  $3.20   quantity:  about 120
(mostly the 2004 reprinting, a few are signed)

__________________________


The Y&P at just $3@ is an especially great deal.
They could be resold on college campuses, for example, or handed out.

Any of y'all interested in this?

Thanks,
Boston

P.S.  I can't sign any of these, as they're away from me, and besides
it's too much extra work for the bargain price!

Safari Dreams and Hologram of Liberty are no longer available in this deal.
Thanks Ellorion and wyomingmiles for buying them out.

Here's the accounting for a half/half:

Post by: Boston on January 30, 2009, 02:36:01 PM
Thanks to all who've ordered so far.
OK, here is the latest and final inventory after scouring the warehouse.
This will exhaust all old YP and BP

________________

You & The Police!   $3.00  quantity:  80
(all are the 1996 edition, which is 90% good enough for most readers)
These have the cartoons by Carrol O. Murphy, which I hadn't room for in the 2005 edition.


Bulletproof Privacy  $3.20   quantity:  112
(mostly the 2004 reprinting)


Boston's Gun Bible   $6.00   quantity:  7
(pre-2009 printings)

__________________________


If somebody steps up for them all, I'll go $425, plus shipping.
That's $2@ on YP and BP (plus the BGBs). 
Great profit potential to resell at up to 4x cost!

Offer good until Sunday midnight, then I'll part them out if necessary.

Boston

Title: Re: slightly scuffed BTP books (returns), at 20% of retail!
Post by: Boston on January 30, 2009, 05:10:36 PM
PM received, thanks Ellorion!
Details in my reply.

___________
I just learned that we've got about 64 new (2009 revised) YPs which are
slightly dirty (a box fell apart/was poorly repacked by freight company).  They
are nearly new condition, but for smudges on the page edges and light grit.
Most readers wouldn't notice or care, but I cannot sell as new.
Retail is $16, but these are $5@.

I'll sell them by the Priority Mail box, holding 32 copies, + $12 S&H.
So, $172 delivered.  They can easily be sold for $10-12@.
The smudges will probably come out with a pencil eraser.

Two customers, please, to spread them out.

_____________
Thanks everyone for helping me whittle down non-retail stock.
It's a nice deal for us all.
I'll post again in a few months once I've some more.

and always glad to pay in 'coin of the realm' :>)

Beth, no way ! I was just down there a month or so ago. Had to get out of the city and clear my head and had never been down that way. Fell in love with the little town of Elbert.
I did not get your PM. Not sure where it went? I'll send you another.

my husband wondered if you accept proposals for book ideas ,,, he has begun to wonder why there is such a dearth of humor about preparedness/2nd-A/economic depression/etc

he is a published writer & as a disabled Vet he tells me (often when he is about to have some horrific medical procedure)  'if i had not learned to laugh when things were really bad i would have died!"

not sure he cares as much about money (though i do!) as much as he would like to help folks find a silver lining to an otherwise bleak outlook

again, thanks for all you do & have done

Beth

ps - not sure if you were a Javelin thrower (thus Javelin press) but the hubby was

Title: Re: slightly scuffed BTP books (returns), at 20% of retail!
Post by: Boston on February 19, 2009, 11:00:45 AM
Beth, that sounds like a good idea for a book.
Perhaps he should write it?
If I thought it a potentially good seller, I might publish it.
Or, he could try on-demand publishing. 

I never threw the javelin, but:
God gave me the name for my publishing house back in 1991, in a dream.

Howdy all,

Fall warehouse cleaning has uncovered the below books, which I'll
offer for sale here first, just like last December.  90% of them are
in decent to very good condition, but not new condition.  10% are
rather bent/scuffed, but no pages are ripped or missing.

Speak up here for what you want, and I'll PM you with the shipping $.
Then, send cash payment with your address to:

Javelin Press
P.O. Box 4241
Gillette, Wyo. 82717

Payment must be received by 23 Nov.
I will ship these orders out between 25 Nov and 2 Dec.

Thanks!
Boston

Thanks for the orders so far, which will fit in a Priority Mail box, hence the $12.

I got a PM for a four book order, $12.50 worth, which is a bit scant considering
the time it takes to pack them.  So, shall we please assume a $20 minimum?
I really don't want to onesee/twosee these copies. 

Post your order here (vs. only a PM); that way folks will know what's still left.
I'll soon readjust the on-hand stock, and post.

Oh, and copying my green text for your order is a clever/clear way of doing it, thanks!

Correct math, and thanks for the order redtailhawk.

Folks, if you want your books shipped out this month,
orders must be received by next Wednesday the 10th.
Otherwise, they'll go out first week of April. 

I meant to mention this on Monday, sorry.

Not trying to be a miser or anything, but I just sent off an order for new BGB and One Nation Under Surv., last Thursday with cash payment before I was aware of your post. Return address Newport, IN.

Is there any way I could get the Slightly Scuffed BGB, the 2009 You and The Police, and Hologram of Liberty instead of the New BGB?  If the order hasn't gone out yet.

6+3.5+5 = 14.50, which is still less than the $33 + 8S&H  (You keep the rest as a order change fee)

Not sure if you handle this stuff yourself.  If it's too much trouble I'll leave the order as is and buy Y&TP and Hologram later.  I'm sure they are worth the new price.  Just thought if I could get 2 more book now, so much the better.

Sorry that I haven't yet made a recent count.
I'll update very soon!

What I can say meanwhile is that all the
Boston on Guns & Courage and Bulletproof Privacy are gone.

So are, I think all the 2009 BGBs.

OK, I've received an accounting:


________________ AS OF 25 MAY 2010 ___________________

Surviving Y2K    $1.00  quantity:  28
(condition varies, all the best ones are gone, but these are generally OK)

You & The Police!   2005 edition    $2.00  quantity:  35
(most in very good shape, many like new)

You & The Police!   2009 edition    $3.50  quantity:  17
(Many are nearly new; you'll wonder why I'm not retailing them!)

Hologram of Liberty   $5.00   quantity:  6

Molôn Labé!   $5.50   quantity:  18
most in very nice condition!

Boston's Gun Bible   $6.00   quantity:  20
(2008 printings, and without any Heller discussion)

Safari Dreams   $6.00   quantity:  3
__________________________

I am selling these by the medium Priority Mail box size only. 
(Such a box will hold, for example, 6 BGB and 2 Y&P.)
No more onesy/twosy orders, sorry, as it's not quite worth the processing time.

For mixed titles within a medium Priority Mail box,
here is exactly what each book makes up in volume. 

BGB   0.1534  (i.e., 15.34%)
ML   0.0913
ONUS   0.0913
SD   0.0710
Y2K   0.0710
HoL   0.0621
Y&P   0.0318

Please calculate your order, and then add $15 for the S&H.
Send cash for total amount with a copy of your order to:

Javelin Press
P.O. Box 4241
Gillette, Wyo. 82717

Also, please post your order here, so that others can know what remains.
I'll correct the inventory here this way regularly.

I also have 27 new-in-shrinkwrap first edition (year 2000) Boston's Gun Bible.
This was the 720 page version, in which the FAL originally beat out the M1A.
They were never reprinted, as I replaced it with the 848 page version in 2002.
I'll make a nice deal to somebody for all of them; PM me your offer.

Thanks,
Boston
Title: Re: slightly scuffed BTP books (returns), at 20% of retail!
Post by: Stratispho on May 22, 2010, 06:53:17 PM
Boston, I'll take
Surviving Y2k  - 1 copy (7.1% of box)
You and the Police 2009 -5 copies (16%)
Hologram of Liberty – 1 copy (6.2%)
Molon Labe - 2 copies (18.4%)
Boston’s gun bible pre 2009 -3 copies (46.02)
Safari dreams – 1 copy (7.1%)

For a total box size of 100.82%. If you run out of room in the box (since I'm over 100) take out a copy of You and the Police. I wasn't sure how exact the percentages were or if they were "best guess" sort of things as it's hard to guess the exact percentage when stuffing a box with books if they are all different size.

Will send out cash in the amount of $66 with a copy of this order in the envelope on Monday. I realize $2 is a cheap tip... but keep it if you can't fit the order in. Take out as many copies of You and the police as you need to until you can fit the rest.

If any of my math is incorrect let me know and I'll make it good ASAP

4 copies of You and the Police 2009 for 14.00
2 copies of Hologram of Liberty for 10.00
2 copies of Molon Labe for 11.00
The total is 37.00 for the books.

Can you bring them the the FSW Jamboree so I can save the shipping charges of 15.00.

The volume %s are indeed exact.    Ize a book professional!  ;D

100.82% will fit, but just barely.  (105% would not.)
Everyone else, try to keep just at/under 100%, please.

Books arrived while I was out of town and just opened the box today. Time to start diving in to them and to hand out some copies. Already went through the 1st chapter of You and the Police and if the rest of it is half as good it's a great book. Will be mailing those to my police officer friends.

Boston,

I recieved the first shipment of books about a week ago and started reading Molon Labe a couple days ago. I'm only a third of the way through and have found myself handing it out to friends already and plan to give it to another today. I'm also strongly considering making the move. I plan on passing through around the start of August to start to check things out. We'll probably have maybe a week or so to look around. I'm looking for freedom, liberty, sunshine, peace and quiet. I like shooting, atving, and ethnic food within about a half hour if possible. What counties have the best Sheriffs and no building permits? I expect a collapse of the dollar within a few years if not alot sooner, especially in comparison to SILVER, gold, groceries, and gas. I also expect the chaos that will come with our financial system collapsing.

I'd like to buy a full case including:

15 ML @ .0913 = 1.3695     82.50
3 BGB                 .4602     18.00
1 SD                   .071        6.
13 Y+P 2009        .4134      45.50
1 Y2K                  .071        1.00
Total                  2.3851   154.0 +30. shipping ups= $184.  This order and funds will be mailed today. Thanks, Z

Boston,

I see you are still showing one copy of HOL in your latest inventory. On 6/10 you also showed one, then Beulah posted he would take it and you acknowledged you'd save it. When I put my latest order in on the 30th I assumed it was gone. If you still have one can you please send two less Y&P 2009 and send the last HOL instead? Thanks and keep the $2. difference for the trouble.

Cheers,

I think so, but am not sure right now.
Will try to do a count next week.

I will certainly look forward to seeing whatever you may have available.

I can't even begin to tell you how much I appreciate you taking the time to do this, particularly for those of us that aren't necessarily "rollin in the dough" at the present time.

I currently have BGB, ONUS, and You and the Police. I would treasure getting Molon Labe, Hologram of Liberty, or well, in all honesty, any other you may have available as well.

I will check back in on this thread next week for details. Or, of course,  a PM would certainly suffice for all the details.

Once again, thank you kindly Boston!

Just curious, how is it that 10mmZH posted at least twice on this one thread alone and yet shows 0 posts?

Haven't seen an answer to my question; is it so obvious that I'm supposed to get it on my own or what?

No one else noticed?

Unknown.
Sometimes, the forum does fluky stuff.
Does this post count discrepancy truly bother you?

What bothered me was the lack of an answer as if my query was too bothersome or too foolish to be considered.

All I wanted was a line or two, as you did, and Thank You Boston for a courteous answer.  :)

Could I reserve that last copy of the 2009 edition of "You and The Police"?

Also, two copies of the 2009 edition of "Boston's Gun Bible"?

Wait!

Is One Nation, Under Surveillance a revised version of Bulletproof Privacy? If so, I won't need the 2 BP's.

Thank you!

Yes, it's the fully updated version of BP.
BP is really now just a collector's copy.

First customer there at the Jam should start a "Scuffed Book" reservation sheet,
tack it onto the tree nearest the group kitchen, and I'll refer to that.

Hello!

After the Jam I still have a few scuffed books left.
This is our summer sale of them; the next sale being probably in spring 2013.
Here are the terms/availability:

These are all/exactly what I have.  Please don't PM with queries about others.
(I.e., I have no scuffed 2012 Hologram, hardcover Molôn, Guns & Courage, etc.)

Orders are fulfilled on a first-come/first-served basis.
Prices are roughly 75% off retail.

There is no cherry-picking; I stuff your order from the stack
without discrimination.  Conditions are Fair-Good, unless otherwise noted.

No signed copies, unless otherwise noted.

Orders are sold only by medium-sized Priority Mail box, and each
title's % box volume is shown below.  Mix titles as you please to fill your box.
(For example, 10ML + 4Y&P fit perfectly.)

Calculate your order by heaviest books first, then fill in the last
remaining space with You & The Police!  (Fill to 95% minimum, and 102% maximum!)

FSWers may post that their order that is enroute that day, and I will adjust online inventory accordingly.
(non-FSWers' orders are recognized only upon receipt, and cannot reserve stock through a forum post.) 

Total up, add $12.00 for Priority Mail flat rate medium box, send cash (no checks!) amount with your address to:

Javelin Press
P.O. Box 4241
Gillette, Wyo. 82717

Please be patient as I am traveling much this summer, and will fulfill
orders during my brief windows of time at the office.  Allow 4-6 weeks
for delivery, although most fulfillment times will be about half that.

Thanks for your order!
Boston

Boston,

Do you still have the same quantity as in the Aug. 2012 post?  Thanks for the reply.  BTW I live in Northwest New Jersey (for a while longer) and I run into Judge Andrew Napolitano from time to time.  The last time I saw him, I just finished Molon Labe and I highly recommended it to him.  He claimed to have received copies from you, but haven't gotten around to reading them.  I strongly urged his to read ML.  He asked if it expressed our (small government, Libertarian) point of view.  I said most definitely.  I will surely follow up on his reading assignment when I see him next.

Regards,

Bob

Bob, thanks for the liaison with Napolitano.
He hasn't yet the 2012 edition of Hologram of Liberty,
but should have one (even if he has yet to read the original).

I'd be happy to supply him with a copy, as well as a
hardcover Molôn Labé!.  Please PM me his shipping address.

scuffed books:  Yes, I've still most of the August inventory, but
need several days before I can do a recount.

PM me what you'd like, as I probably have it still.

Regards,
Boston

Boston:

Sent you a PM book order request the other day.  Since I won't need the BP on that order, that brings the total down to $40.00 if you still have the others.  I will happily exchange cash,  USPS Money Order, or a case of sauce (see my website please).  Your choice.  Looking forward to meeting you at the Jam.

Cash only for these scuffed copies, btw.

Hey, I don't take no stinkin' money for my books -- beer only!

Been delayed with other things, and still haven't
done an accounting.  But, it's on my A list to do. 

Will post here ASAP.

Thanks,

Boston, I will take a Gun Bible, 2009. Will send you frn's, or pay in person. Let me know your preference.

Post by: Boston on March 22, 2013, 06:01:35 PM
Here's a copy/paste from previous posts.
Just to remind everyone, I'm not selling these books in quantities less
than specified below:


Quote
Howdy all,

The publishing business often feels like "on consignment" when
dealing with the major wholesalers, and returns are common.
I cannot resell them as new, thus I will discount them to 20% of cover price.

Not by 20%, but to 20% of cover price.

Condition is generally very decent, with slight scuffs or bends.  (Some look nearly new!)
A few are more hurt, but that's uncommon.  All pages are intact, regardless.

Such books have been sold on eBay, regularly fetching 40-45% of retail.
Thus, you've a chance to double your $, or distribute them as gifts.

Terms:  cash with order.  No checks.  No M.O.s.

I am selling these by the medium Priority Mail box size (or full 35 lb. case) only. 
(A medium Priority Mail box will hold, for example, 6 BGB and 2 Y&P.)
No more onesy/twosy orders, sorry, as it's not worth the processing time.

(You can mix these titles per carton, such as half-and-half.)
For mixed titles within a medium Priority Mail box,
here is exactly what each book makes up in volume. 

BGB   0.1534  (i.e., 15.34%)
ML   0.0913
ONUS   0.0913
SD   0.0710
Y2K   0.0710
HoL   0.0621  (1997 edition)
Y&P   0.0318

The volume %s are exact.   
100.82% will fit, but just barely.  (105% would not.)
Everyone try to keep just at/under 100%, please.

Please calculate your order, and then add $15 for the S&H.
Send cash for total amount with a copy of your order to:

Javelin Press
P.O. Box 4241
Gillette, Wyo. 82717

I'm not selling any more copies of any scuffed books other than in
Priority Mail box or full case quantities.
 

A full case holds 2.4544x more books than the Priority Mail box.
Add $30 for UPS Ground.


I also have 27 new-in-shrinkwrap first edition (year 2000) Boston's Gun Bible.
This was the 720 page version, in which the FAL originally beat out the M1A.
They were never reprinted, as I replaced it with the 848 page version in 2002.
I'll make a nice deal to somebody for all of them; PM me with any interest, as I haven't priced these.

I still haven't gotten to recount these yet, as I've been swamped with other deadlines.
Can probably count them next week.  Thanks for your patience.

It's been a year since I've hawked these, so stay tuned.
I'll try to have current inventory posted in a week or so.

Will probably even have a couple scuffed Modules for Manhood.
