WTS: Military history books and a couple of movies

jasonc · #1 11-03-2019, 03:46 PM

Hello all,
I have a small selection of books for sale, along with a couple of movies on DVD. All are in good condition, but have been used and read. The movies play fine--I have watched them all myself recently.

Shipping is actual USPS costs. PM me with your selection to get a shipping quote. Media mail is generally the cheapest option, but usually takes a week or ten days. If you need a faster option, let me know and we will figure it out.

I can accept paypal, checks (held until cleared), or USPS money orders.

Pictures will follow in a second post.
