I'm not interested in a book! I need a person to help me because I'm blind. If you can't do this, say so. I tried to tell my issue with an expert. Your software just returns me to the first page-can't ask questions that way. If you can't provide me with a person to talk to I will not order from you again. It just doesn't work for me because of my sight. I also don't have 24 hours to work on this.
Very Disappointed I only want one option-to talk to a live person.

While most coffee table art books are 'a dime a dozen', apparently 'Landscapes of James Reynolds' is an exception, with two selling for over $400 on eBay in recent months.

Satnrose,
That book is not nothing. It's an oxymoron.
Even the book Security is an oxymoron. Here is a list
of similar, yet rare books we've lost:
1. Privacy Today
2. Apps That Work
3. Secure Communications
4. Anonymous
5. Getaways That Get You There
6. Secrets We Keep
7. Freedom and Privacy
If anyone finds any of those actual items, I'll buy them
in almost any condition.
Oh yeah, one, no, two, no three, more:
8. Quick Computer Solutions
9. Phone Support
10. Safe and Effective
Cheers and Happy Hunting!

Thanks for this list, it is so very helpful and adds so much value to the nearly 20 year old dialogue! Truly an eye-opening reply!

Elon Musk mentioned Security Analyst (sort of) on Twitter a week or so ago. The list (IMHO) may be a honey-do list. Elon Musk is known to fix things like that are on holm_ho_3m749zze list. Titillating to think EM would come back to his old alma mater and fix her up. A fleet of electric delivery trucks would be one suggestion. Qatar maybe could help(-;?

My personal ebay favorite: A paperback book (thumbs down) that doesn't look so hot (thumbs down) on how to use a slide rule (thumbs down, *grumble grumble*) as written by Issac Asimov (thumbs up buy buy buy!). Turned out to be a 10000% profit and one of the very pleasant discoveries that I liked on the hobby side of things where it got very fun. Was pretty fun to just look at and think this super-famous sci-fi author got pitched (successfully) for something so mundane and ultimately an obsolescent skill (for today).

First editions of Cixin Liu's 'The Three Body Problem' are likely to appreciate in value once the TV series is released in March on Netflix.
The book was originally published in 2006 in a Chinese science fiction serial, then as a stand alone book in 2008. in 2014 Ken Liu (no relation) translated the book into English for Tor Books, where it became the first Asian novel to win a Hugo Award for Best Novel.
Game of Thrones writers David Benioff and D. B. Weiss are adapting the series for Netflix, with a scheduled release date of March 2024.
In 2019 Subterranean Press issued a signed and numbered edition of 526 copies.
See here for 'Three Body Problem' books sold on eBay for over $100.

Here's a new one for the "Books That Look Like Nothing" thread. I was thrilled to find this at a local auction. It literally looks like nothing, but sold on eBay for $516.00.

Greetings,
I am a bookworm and have over 2000 books in my library. This IBF club booklet is a very interesting bit of history, and I can see why it sold for so much!
Thank you for sharing this with us! Now I have another quest to research.
Best regards,

Depends. Usually an antique is around that age. But for Books it might have to be a little longer...and The author must at least be well known
