Good deals and bargains...

[jeffingoff]

I also noticed that lots of the Lansdale books I'd been eyeing off were no longer for sale and I was sure that Jeffingoff had beaten me to them - I know he's been buying up on the Lansdales. But then I saw that he resisted, so I should apologise for the awful things I said about you Jeff.

Hahahaha no offense taken! For sure I was looking through all the Lansdales and pumping the brakes. After padding my CD account with a healthy amount of funds, I had to kind of pretend I didn't see anything.

Good Lord, we have a Lottery winner on the Forum LOL!!

I know it must look like that, but I have been paying off the top half on layaway for about 8 months. The sales purchases average out to $23 each - many on here would pay as much for a single book as I paid for the 18 books.

While I was shopping the sale, I had McCammon's Stinger in my cart but by the time I got to the checkout, it was gone. Anyone here like to fess up?

The only thing I did go for is CD's credit plan. I was wondering who else at this forum got the credit plan. Cap

I am in. I also owe you a PM but have had no time to get things together. Soon.

I passed. I was on their site and it was getting dangerous. But after the gift certificates and credit plan, I needed to just cool it.

So, what did everyone pick up from Camelot?

I grabbed:

Seductions, The Girl in the Basement, Methods of Madness, and The Disappeared and Other Stories by Ray Garton
Brides of the Impaler by Ed Lee
Picking the Bones and Mad Dogs by Brian Hodge
The Family Tree by John Everson

I picked up several King titles that I was missing from my collection. Love dealing with Kim and Tony.

[bookworm 1]

I also chose to stay away from their website. It was tough but I didn't budge.

[RonClinton]

I ended up passing as well...pretty cool sale, though. If they do it again next year, I’m sure I’ll snag a few.

I chose to not even look at what they had as I am trying to curtail my book purchases. You got some good stuff there, congratulations!

I suspect it's their annual sale. A few years back they moved that to October, but I don't recall them running one this year (likely due to recovering from the hurricane season). They often have some very good deals (as I'm sure most of you know).
