Since you mention hardbacks, I'll let you know of my most recent find, which was a set of five (out of seven total) first printings in a Collier series of Saint books from the late 30's - early 40's. And I bought them not online but at an actual bookstore! Our fearless leader Mr. Dickerson tells me I only need Thieves' Picnic and The Saint in Miami to complete the set. I'll check out AbeBooks to see if they have the titles I need.<br><br>Cheers,<br>Ian<br><blockquote style="border-left: 2px solid rgb(0, 0, 255); padding-left: 5px; margin-left: 0px;">-----Original Message-----

<div>I was wondering if I'm still a member since I haven't seen a post in quite a spell.</div>
<div>I've been collecting more of the hardbacks and am truly enjoying rereading old stories or reading new to me stories, all in hard bound copies.</div>
<div>I have found an online bookseller "AbeBooks" has many of the hardbacks at very affordable rates. <br>
Only one book did I have to pay $40 for; the first Saint book.<br>
I'm tired of the paperbacks falling a apart on second readings.<br>
