Horsebucket?

in the future you might want to sandwich the book between two pieces of thin masonite cut to size.

not worth risking damage with something like that.

My understanding was that the book was well packed. There is no amount of special packing that you can do it someone crushes the box.

I should have jumped in earlier, but I've had my head up my ass....

I just want to say that you are welcome to try to repair the book if you wish, but I have no problem sending out another. I happen to have had that lower number 9 around, as I was saving it for someone that wound up not buying it. Maybe it was meant to be??? A fresh one will be in the 40s I think (I'll have to check) but I digress...

I have no problem sending out another because this whole thing is MY FAULT! If I knew how to charge for international shipping in the first place, I wouldn't have cheaped out at the post office and sent this thing at media rate, which is why it probably arrived the way it did. It's because I didn't want to pay for Priority Insured to Canada and so I risked it and took the cheap route (relying on my good packaging). A lot of good that did, eh? It was moronic, really.

Nevertheless, please don't sweat it too much. Why don't you see if you can actually iron it back to life. If so, great! I'll send you a new box for it (Priority). If you can't, send it back to me and I will send you a new one. How does that sound to you? Deal?

Carol, I think I'll keep this one as is. the book itself is in repairable shape and I got to rant at the post office, so I'm happy now.

thanks for the offer, though. it's very considerate.

Well, so much for lucky number 9. Of course it is now the most famous copy of Horsebucket. Congratulations on that.


Yes, Carol you are very generous and a fine person to make that great offer.
