I oversee the sales at some level at three clubs (See Here: http://goscf.com/t/86327 ) . However, not everything sells. Below is a listing of books I have been asked to offer up here by one member's widow. They were not needed by the Western Philatelic Library.

My job is to keep these out of the recycle bin.

Terms are simple, first to contact me gets the item held until I receive postage costs and any voluntary donation. Each item has the USPS Media Mail pricing listed for Domestic US delivery. If you want a higher level of service, please ask. There is no service or handling fee; that and this listing are my donations to the RECC.

I will accept unused gummed US postage but no fake Forever Stamps please as I wish you to actually receive the book. Cash or non-rubber check to cover your postage cost is fine as well; if providing a donation, cash or check (again good) please. All communication will be by messaging and email while all payments are by mail.

The King George VI and perhaps the Germany books are valuable enough to mail at international rates (First-Class Package International Service -- Retail). You may inquire about cost when you email me your country of delivery or check the current Rate Fold, Notice 123 • Effective January 21, 2024 beginning on page 61 for your country's rate group and page 44 for the cost.

You contact me via SCF Messaging which requires 50 SCF posts and your profile having messaging enabled.

Again, you pay the postage for a free book and make a donation if you wish. Any donation would be welcomed which would go to the RECC (Redwood Empire Collector's Club) and is up to you to determine--DO NOT ASK ME, please. The widow of the collector of the books is a Co-President of RECC.

You failed to actually post the media mail cost for the Simpson's book. I think it would be $7.05.

Wasn't the "$" enough? $7.09 is the current 5lb media mail cost.

I just can not hire good help then we are just suck with me and my errors.

Also I have not heard from Chipshot yet.. Unless it is the one "Chip' I know who knows my address. Not to be confused with the former CHP now stamp dealer selling out of Biggs CA.

I did send an email (if I did it right). I am still trying to figure things out on this site.
I just need an address to send shipping by way of gummed MNH stamps and a cash donation.
Thanks,
Bob
