I sell a stock of books

Post by kaliya »

Hi, I will move abroad soon.

I was running a (small) local club, so I own some books I wouldn't carry on. I would sell at around half of their price, plus shipping costs. Possibly at a comprehensive stock. But available for other agreements. Please write me a private message, so we can negotiate.

This is the list:

From the Elementary Go series:
- 38 basic joseki
- Tesuji
- Life and death
- Attack and defense
- The endgame

Others:
- Modern fuseki korean style (2 copies)
- 501 opening problems
- The basics of Go strategy
- Making good shape
- Modern joseki and fuseki 1 and 2 (a bit underlined)
- The middle game of Go
- The direction of play
- Lessons in the fundamentals of Go
- Invincible - soft cover
- 200 endgame problems from Nihon Kiin
- Graded go problems for beginners 1 and 2
- Reflections on the game of Go
- Proverbs by Nihon Kiin
- Essential Joseki (Naiwei Rui)
- Otake's secrets of strategy
- Fighting Ko (Jin Jiang)

From Oromedia, and translated in English:
- Speed baduk 10, 11, 12, with anwers http://senseis.xmp.net/?SpeedBadukForBeginners

In chinese:
- A collection of games of Gu Li - hard cover
- 6 books of problems
- 1000 problems of life and death (red cover)
- The 12 pocket books of problems

Mmh seems not, mine is mostly a kifu collection (about 100 games), with not many comments.
So I guess the commentary is not by Gu Li itself.
Unfortunately I cannot find any reference to this book online, if required, I will provide some pictures.

When you are trying to sell books people are unfamiliar with, it's probably a good idea to at least post pictures of them.

I specify better:

- 3 books of problems in chinese at €25: http://senseis.xmp.net/?WeiqiLifeAndDeathDrills
- 3 books of problems in chinese at €15: http://senseis.xmp.net/?HeadingForShodan
- A book of kifus of Gu Li, not sure, so I attach a couple of pictures. I can't find any information online so the price should be negotiated.

If interested, please PM me.

Kaliya, please either put the photos in hide tags like this
lala
or, even better, reduce the resolution, so that they don't kill the page layout … 1.200 px wide should be more than enough, IMHO ;-)
