David, if you bring new consignment content on the website : please get rid of all those "new", "new consignment"... it makes that the page is currently a real pain to read, and it's not easy at all to just browse into the content
I am part of the younger generation, and i am quite greedy! Who knows, maybe one day i'll collect english language items? :-)

I read this article the other day, found it interesting and it addresses this issue.

I, too, find it hard to tell what is "new" today vs. what was "new" last week. I'm sure this will all get sorted out with the newer web design but I'd like the "Last Updated" heading to include the date and the TIME of the update. I find myself checking several times during the day and really have a hard time sorting new listings from old ones.
It's unlikely. After 30 years of book collecting, my interest has slipped elsewhere, though I still enjoy a good read. Photography has taken over and filled the gap. If I'm honest, I think things started to slip when I failed to finish Lisey's Story. I hated that book from the beginning and, though I really enjoyed Duma Key, The Dome's been another slog for me. I AM looking forward to the four novellas, but I don't see me 'collecting' again.

Think I understand. Over the past couple of years I've been considering selling my collection. I'm certain, eventually i will.
Oh...I just LOVE Lisey's Story....

...who needs remarques anyway?
David - Anything with Michael Whelan would interest me, even if I couldn't afford it.
Also, speaking from the comic book geek world - a comic remarque is rather rare. Sometimes an artist will do a sketch on a cover with their signature, but it doesn't happen very often. I would make a suggestion for those though, to use CGC and have them graded and authenticated ( which can get pricey ).
Joe Hill would be a cool avenue as well.

I am in the process this very minute of posting a major new consignment of nearly 40 signed 1st trade editions. Good pricing as well. Seller is a reputable collector I have known for 10 years. Go check it out at www.bettsbooks.com
Dragline : Nothin'. A handful of nothin'. You stupid mullet head. He beat you with nothin'. Just like today when he kept comin' back at me - with nothin'.
Luke : Yeah, well, sometimes nothin' can be a real cool hand.
