That's not bad, how helpful have you found them?

Actually, very. I was going to keep them for myself (after getting rid of all my other books) but I found I rarely use them having read them already and know what to look for.
The most useful are the ones on the left, the phrasebooks. They have tasks that people might want to do with examples. The pocket references are very useful as well.

Wow, I'm considering buying these. Excellent value!
Can I only get some books, and not all?

Which ones?
I just didn't want to sell them individually, but I don't mind splitting it up.

I was thinking the C, C++, Python Phrasebook, Python, Linux, and vi Editor.
But, as I said I am considering since we are in tough times, were toilet paper has become a luxury.

Ok, they are in their own pile now.
How much do you have to spend?

Absolutely zero.
I got so carried away that I forgot to check my money before posting. I've just consulted my wallet and my bank account and I cannot possibly spend any more on my self. Sorry. :/
But I would've definately bought this if I could.

Any single one you want? I could probably ship it without needing anything if someone else buys the rest.

I'd be interested in a few actually. They may help me with both University and general studying I want to do :)

Wow! You are very generous. The Python Phrasebook looks interesting, since I don't know C, C++ (I only wanted them for future references).

Not very generous...
If I were very generous I'd give them all away, but I am not.

Ok the Python Phrasebook is for OutOfReach at the moment, do you want the rest?

Actually I was interested in the MySQL, PHP & Python Pocket References

Well, if you take into account how many books I am not even trying to sell and giving away for free (first attachment). How many books I own (second), and how many I am selling on amazon, it isn't that impressive to give away one book that is tiny.

Well, they cost me $10 each, so you can have all three for $10 + shipping (foreigners...).

Sure that sounds great :) You have my address, so I can either send the money physically in return, or if you have paypal I can pay that way :)
Your choice

Physical. I don't have PayPal.
Your address still 22 Acacia Avenue?

Yes.
It's also the same address I wrote on the letter I sent

You either don't know the significance of 22 Acacia Avenue, or you lied to us on IRC...

The rest of the lyrics are too suggestive for this forum, but you get the idea (hopefully)
If youre feeling down depressed and lonely
I know a place where we can go
22 acacia avenue meet a lady that I know
So if youre looking for a good time
And youre prepared to pay the price
Fifteen quid is all she asks for
Everybodys got their vice
If youre waiting for a long time for the rest to do their piece
You can tell her that you know me and you might even get it free
So any time youre down the east end dont you hesitate to go
You can take my honest word for it shell teach you more than you can know

Sorry LaRoza, if you've not already sent them off, could I have the C Pocket Reference too?
If you've already sent the others don't worry about it

Thanks a lot, I found out that in one of my modules for University we'll be doing some more C and interfacing with hardware, so I figured it wouldn't hurt to have that in my arsenal ;)

When I mail it, I will send a slip with the shipping costs so you can pay me back.
I want real money for them though this time.

You mean I have to go and get dollars? pfft, that's no good! Is another 38p not good enough?

I would love to buy them, but the shipping would be more than the books.

I have one left, the Linux Pocket Reference.
It is the thickest of them, and has a lot in it.
