hahaha i'm glad that you share my excitement, i'm hoping a lot of people will too. i'll try to look for that book, griffin and sabine. i have bob ong books here at home, but they're quite cheap ra sa national. but if i get a deal from bob ong himself that would be even better haha. i'm not so familiar with faye ilogon but i'll look into her books as well.

here's my deal, i can buy books from you guys, and also books you bought from me, so i buy back my books at a fraction of the cost and sell it again. Same thing with your books, you can give me a price for the whole lot if i see they're interesting or it would be fine individually as well.

i''m buying books now, locally, so if you have some or your friends, do leave me a message

Heyy i found them in my list! haha. they're quite expensive since hardcover sila. i searched sa powerbooks and mostly tig P900 up.

Griffin & Sabine: An Extraordinary Correspondence | 450.00
The Morning Star | 600.00
The Golden Mean | 600.00
Sabine's Notebook | 400.00
The Gryphon | 500.00
Griffin and Sabine Trilogy Boxed Set | P2,800.00 (mas cheaper sya individually)

again, these will be special orders. I won't be carrying these since mahal.

unfortunately gamay ra akong books and i dont think im selling it...hahaha.i want to have a mini library in the future... i soooo love books. if daghan pa ko money, daghan na ko libro now. unfortunately books are very expensive.haha

have you heard of the book "the traveller"? its like the little prince, only shorter. mura sya ug cross breed sa hope for the flowers and the little prince. you should have that also..its very nice. as in, im sure ud love it. and the others also. (if you do, pls let know kay nahan pud ko mbuy akong iregalo)

[babypaupau]

ahahaha...silly me. i confess, i didnt go thru all of the list coz its hurting my eyes. hahaha..it makes me dizzy after some time..kadugayan nko tan aw kay mura ko malibat.

when do you think will they be available?

[tambuk]

yes me too, i want a library for myself as well. i can't even bring myself to sell my books. i mean i will sell them at a price where i can buy one brand new but that's just silly. haha. i'll look into the traveler. I haven't been much updated with new books as before. I've been delving into older ones from the 90's and back, and the usual classics.

the sabine and griffin books aren't in my original list. they are in the list that my supplier has.

the bookshop is still under a lot of planning, so it may take a few months. it may open august the soonest, or during -ber months or fall months. with september or august the latest.

from date of shipping, it may still take 1-2 months for the books to arrive.

[babypaupau]

two months for shipping? might as well as call it walking...or crawling. hahaha


but still...looking forward to it.

yes the shipping is a little off-putting since it's via balikbayan box, but i think that's enough time to build a cozy bookshop with limited budget.

[babypaupau]

yeah, enough time to save up para bayad pud. hahahaha
