Nice start to the year...
Had a replacement for one of credit cards arrive yesterday, so thought I might activate the mighty beast.
Quick phone call, job done. Or, not. It appears that I have now joined the ranks of the scammed, spammed and ripped off... yep, someone got the card details (a card I use only at one place, PayPal!) and decided to test the credit limit.
First, a £1.49 at iTunes... and then, in like Flynn, £2600 at dabs.com... of course, I did wonder if I had bought that plasma TV I want in my sleep but apparently not... that'll please the wife of course!
Luckily, no harm done as the card company (Alliance & Leicester) had spotted the trend and cancelled the transaction. What I don't understand is how, or where, the details were nicked. I haven't had a physical card for this account for over a year - registered at PayPal for occasional business purchases only. Odd, very.
Ahh, the world's a better place thanks to the interweb.

Some bargain books for you all...
Please find below this week's list of bargain books - you can order these directly from the website (which is now working correctly I promise!) or by dropping me a note by email. There are no free books this week as I've not had the time to do any stock taking. This coming week I promise!
I display around 500 secondhand books in the Post Office, here in Peasedown St. John. Each week I replace between 80 and 100 of them with fresh books - those removed are then repriced (upwards!) and put on my web sites.
Each week I will make available a small list of books that you can get at my shop prices (typically half what I will advertise them for in the future) by buying here.
I try and price all these books below other internet venues - not a practice I endorse or apply anywhere else to be honest - I do this so that people who visit the shop can be sure of getting a bit of a bargain even if the range is limited.
You can pay by cheque, Postal Order and PayPal only on these books - please indicate at time of order.

I display around 500 secondhand books in the Post Office, here in Peasedown St. John. Each week I replace between 80 and 100 of them with fresh books - those removed are then repriced (upwards!) and put on my web sites.
Each week I will make available a small list of books that you can get at my shop prices (typically half what I will advertise them for in the future) by buying here.
I try and price all these books below other internet venues - not a practice I endorse or apply anywhere else to be honest - I do this so that people who visit the shop can be sure of getting a bit of a bargain even if the range is limited.
You can pay by cheque, Postal Order and PayPal only on these books - please indicate at time of order.

A few free books....
I'm stock taking and clearing part of my unit to make way for new stock. Those books that are being removed are offered for free, you simply pay the standard P&P.
It's a mixed bag to be honest and you can get an idea of this weeks current list below. Of course, some of these have gone (offered to current members of my list - see the site to join up!) now but you can see what's left at my shiny new site.
If there's something of interest then you can check whether it's still available and what the P&P will be at the site.
