Both of the above books are in excellent condition


Book # 3 is Hiking the Appalachian Trail 2 Volume Set
These book are in excellent shape and still have the original dust covers on them. If you are an AT Junkie then you will want these books to read.

My preferred payment is cash only on this if it is a local pickup only. Price: $ 35.00
If someone wants these 2 books shipped the Price is $ 40.00 and that includes paypal fees and shipping via book rate.

Book 1 and 3 still available

Book # 3 is Hiking the Appalachian Trail 2 Volume Set

I'll "vouch" for this set, which I have, but without dust covers. To me (I enjoy history), these two books are amazing stories of hiking the AT in the "early" days.

Ewker, if I didn't already have mine, I'd be snatching up these immediately!

Thanks Rain Man. It is a hard decision to sell them but it is time to pass these on to new folks to enjoy reading about what the AT was like.

I'm sorry but are you kidding?

No I'm not

Would you be willing to share why you believe your used book is worth ~3x as much as a used book in "very good" condition?

Only books left are the 2 Volume set of Hiking the Appalachian Trail. Pricing is above

[admirald7s]

Buyers, be aware that you can buy seller's used 2-book set for $35, or you can get any number of good to very-good condition used copies on amazon (including shipping) for $10 or less.

I've previously asked why the seller thought his books are worth 3x-4x higher than amazon. No response yet, so the motto "a fool and his money are soon parted" comes to my mind. I recommend potential buyers exercise caution and determine why the price seller's price is so high.

So go buy it from Amazon if you want one.

I'm good, thanks. Just providing information to potentially unaware buyers.

Seems to me a man can price his goods at what he values them at. He is not obliged to sell them at market value or at a value deemed fit by others. You kinda look like a douche being the price police. One post was sufficient to get your point across, which I'm sure was appreciated by all, but now you are just badgering the man.

What dc said!!!! Nothing worse than the price police. If you don't like the price why waste your time or concern with trying to blast someone and hurt their sale. I have used this site of and on for a lot of years and I am fairly certain that most on here are well aware of the existence of Amazon and search engines.

thanks dcdennis and Sirsnappy09 for your comments. You have to learn to dismiss people like him.

[admirald7s]

I'm so sorry that I offended someone on the internet...

Just as the OP is free to post on here asking for whatever price he wants for his wares, I also am free to post my feedback on his asking price and question why he's price it as he has. I'm disappointed (though not surprised) to see that some folks cannot (or choose not to) differentiate between raising concerns and personally attacking someone on the internet. Guess I'll go back to hiking where the things around me don't get riled up at perceived injustices...

Well......there was really no concern to be raised......

So easy to identify who hates their own life on message boards

Here's a good deal on a book about backpacking, available through Amazon. Maybe the OPs prices are more fair than some think...

PS - If you use 1 click shopping on Amazon, use extreme care when viewing this item.

I would think shipping should be free.....
