[Magick Stallion]

Hello to all,

Due to financial strain, I am having to part with my BoSP/Barker collection. Not too happy about this. My loss, your gain. Up for grabs are a handful of OOP titles from the BoSP catalog, 3 Wormwoods, as well as a slew of David Barker books. If interested, please PM me. Shipping is a mere $3.00 w/ delivery confirmation. Chaps, $2.00. Will combine shipping. Thanks!

So, I figure these were all snapped up, right? I'd buy the early Barker titles myself, were it not for my own crushing financial strain at the moment. My pre-BOSP titles are extremely rare. Get them while you can. When I'm on Oprah, sipping tea and defending James Whatshisname (A Million Little Pieces), it'll be too late. Oh, right, she's done pimping books. Well, it'll really be too late then.

Wait: Now I recall reading he's become a major jackass slave driver of poor writers. I won't defend him on Oprah. If she were still there...
