With all due respect, I did not become a new member to “intentionally circumvent” your rules of selling as you accuse me of. If you read my original post, I was seeking advice as to what to do with my Dad’s beautiful models and extensive book collection. I posted the list of books because it was so impressive and I knew only members of a group like this could appreciate it and due to the number of books on nautical history and ship modeling , I felt that this group would have the best advice on what to do with them. I received excellent advice from your members. Also, a few members reached out to me to ask if I would sell specific volumes as apparently they were hard to come by. I did not see any harm in that. It made me happy to see books go to someone who could appreciate them. When it came to my attention of the “25” post rule, I posted a link to ebay so I wouldn’t “break” the rules. I apologize if you think that I broke the rules, but that was my intention. If I had enough knowledge on ship model building to make 25 posts , then I would probably keep the collection and continue with my Dad’s legacy of building model ships. An FYI, my Dad was an active member and contributor of Ship Model World and Nautical Research Guild for years.
