    Quite a few hunting books, are they worth selling?

    Decluttering! These have been sitting in a box, which hasn’t been opened since we shifted 3 years ago. Prior to that they sat on a bookcase in the hallway.

    Would anyone be interested in buying the lot? Or should I keep them? Don’t really want to go thru the rigmarole of pricing them individually. Most are in good condition.

    Keep them for your kids and then for yourself to read again when you get too old to climb the hills and become reflective on life

    You may regret selling them.

    I'd vote to keep them as well but if you do decide to sell I'd gladly buy them.

    Well that was easy then! Back in the box they go.

    Cheers

    I had that Hans Willems book a long time back loaned it out and never got it back, would love to relieve you of it..... or you could take a pic of his home made oatmeal muesli bar recipe in the book and post it on here......

    the rex forrester one is very good. My dad who has never gone hunting apart from shooting a goat with a 303 quite liked it.

    I've often thought it would be great to have a forum library but would you get half the books back without some sort of deposit system, logistics of it would be fairly demanding.
