I wouldn't kick this out of my library:

Yep, and the seller is very reputable and known to us all as a top notch Bukowski Seller. That is Scott from Abandoned Planet.

I don't understand why anyone would spend 11 years building a reputation on eBay and then change their username.

But I guess your aim doesn't have to be very good to shoot yourself in the foot.

 

[LickTheStar]

Ugh. Yeah I'm watching and drooling... and sighing at being too poor to afford it.

And I wondered if that at AP selling... Strange to change a reputable name...

 

[bospress.net]

He changed his name when he closed his store. He still kept his good years of history and feedback.

I changed my used name after buying and selling for 5 or six years.

Sometimes it just makes sense.

I'll send a free chapbook (up to $10 value) to the first person that can name my old ebay user name...

billyroberts

 

[bospress.net]

right! Did you remember, or is there a way to look that up?

Those were the good l=old days when I was a high bidder on a lot of stuff before my expenses changed... Ha!

Please send me a book or two (up to $10) and I'll mail it out!

If I bought that book, I'd probably drool on it.

Thanks Bill for the heads-up on Scott's new ebay handle.

Hey, I knew that! I remember it because I thought of Bill as "Billie" back then. But I would have guessed it was "billieroberts".

 

[Hosh]

See, that book could make me a collector...ugh.

That's pretty frickin' cool! I really need to start playing the lotto in hope that I could just buy this kind of stuff whenever it presented itself. Still no bids, maybe money is still pretty tight all over, but damn.
