I have been going nuts with my book buying; ebay is VERY addictive. I browse the ending auctions of the antiquarian children's books, and I look though many of them! Last night I had a bit of free time before going to bed, and I was going to look through them without buying _anything_, but when I saw a book which I have personally paid $55 for before (and made a fine good profit on) sitting at 99 cents with no bids, well I just had to bring my snipe program up! So, I put a snipe on it of just a tad over $11 and we will see what heppens today when the auction ends.
Almost -- but not everything -- I am purchasing needs some type of repair. I am good at this, and I am learning more all the time.
One thing I am in need of, and don't know what it is really, or where to find it, is a marker for repainting gilt on the cover of a book. In this particular case, I need it to be a white color gilt. Do any of the artists on my list know what I need and where to find it? If not, I will ask on the booksellers list, but I would rather not display my ignorance there.
I have a long road trip ahead of me today; I want to start early.
