swellmomma Posted January 26, 2012 Share Posted January 26, 2012 Does anyone have a very gently used copy of the usborne book "There's a Monster in my House" that you will sell me? We borrowed it from the library a while back and my daughter cut some of the flaps out. The library wants $25 to replace it. It is OOP now it appears so I can't buy off of amazon, but as long as it is in almost new condition they will waive the fee for replacing it. So does anyone have a copy of this book they would be willing to sell me? If I can get it for cheaper than $25 including shipping that would be good.

sewingmama Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 There are two copies on Ebay Canada. They are shipping from the UK. I have bought from the UK before when I was living in Canada -shipping is super fast - for a book it should be little more then a week or so shipping. http://www.ebay.ca/sch/i.html?_from=R40&_trksid=p5197.m570.l1313&_nkw=theres+a+monster+in+my+house&_sacat=See-All-Categories Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest submarines Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 abebooks.com has really good shipping rates to Canada. I order from them all the time. Even those books that are from the UK, are shipped for normal prices, and not the inflated shipping rates we often get from the US. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jennsmile Posted January 27, 2012 Share Posted January 27, 2012 I did not know of that one, I will go check them out paperbackswap is not available for Canadians sadly. Will check into them thanks! Hmm maybe one of us could request it and mail it too you if it is in good shape from paperback swap. You are lucky, my library won't let me replace the book only pay for it.

Of course I may end up buying more than the 1 book that I need :lol: So is the life of a bookaholic :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This way you save on shipping, and end up with more books. :001_huh: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
