Not that anon, but you literally used the word
>display

>>9128563
>Not displaying books for yourself to admire

Not everyone bases their lives around other people anon, I like the way a bookshelf looks and I like it being in my presence.

>>9128569
ok. ok. wow. just... ok. you are missing the entire fucking point. you are so fucking dense it's like you actually never read a book in your entire life. i hope your airport news stand tier books fall on top of your balls and pop them so you can't reproduce any more disgusting fucking filth like you on this planet and save the human race you fucking cunt scab

Why are you so angry, friend? Why does it bother you that some people simply prefer buying their books?

Why are you so mad? You will never see this person in real life, his owning books doesn't affect you.

>>9128616
You probably own an ereader, you fucking faggot.

i love when those work out. you feel like you won a lotto. robbing bastards tho when it doesn't

>>9129190
Exactly! Feeling good about this one - we have done a small amount of haggling already and my final offer is very very close to his last counteroffer.

By the way, how much (as a rough % of asking price) do you think it all right to offer? Obviously too low will result in being ignored without further haggling, but too high and you may pay a little over the odds. I'd be interested to hear any thoughts
