Please mooch any books that are in my inventory. I do not reject anyone unless the book has changed from the condition that I listed it. I do have all books that I have in the inventory. I will contact you if the book's condition has changed to ask if you still want the book. Please browse my inventory and mooch away!

My wife picked up a tip from a lady in England. She uses USED dryer sheets to freshen up books that have been stored for a long time and have a bit of a smell. DO NOT DO THIS TO A COLLECTOR'S BOOK!! Take a used dryer sheet and cut it or tear it in half. Make sure it is a USED dryer sheet...the new ones have oils on them for scent that can stain your book, so make sure it is a used dryer sheet. Place half the dryer sheet in the front of the book (around page 50 or so) and half the dryer sheet in the back of the book (around 50 to 100 pages from the end of the book) Place the book in a plastic bag (Walmart, kmart, Piggly Wiggly or whatever grocery bag you have) and tuck the bag tight around the book. Let sit for a day and then remove dryer sheets. Your book will smell like the scent of the dryer sheet. We have tried this and it works wonders. Then we recycle the plastic bag. Just thought I would pass along the tip.
