I bought these books for my own personal use around a year ago, but I only read a few before I got distracted by other books, such as Lord of the Rings, the Inkheart trilogy, C. S. Lewis’ ‘Space Trilogy’ and other interesting but not as useful books. We have another set of such books in the house so I don’t need my own set anyway, and I’m trying to earn a bit of money so I can pay my sister back for her half of my shiny new guitar she helped me buy.
I haven’t been playing guitar long. I started at the beginning of July. The only guitar we had in the house was a rather beaten up student size, so I decided I needed a nice full size of my own. Mom has a Yamaha 12 string that was living with Grandma. We brought that one back home and I really liked it, but I still wanted something a little easier to play than a 12 string, and better than a 12 year old student size guitar. I decided I definitely wanted a Yamaha and started looking at the reviews for the different types. I settled on a FG720s. Dad took me to Guitar Center at the beginning of their huge Labor Day weekend sale and to my disappointment they were out of that particular type. The man in the acoustic room was very helpful. He showed me a slightly different and also much better guitar(fg730s). It was on sale for $250, and counting sales tax it came up to about $280 which was what I was ready to pay for the other guitar. The cool thing is this one is a step up from my first choice, and consequently normally costs up to $100 more when not on sale. All the reviews said to wait, save your money and pay the extra because this one is just that awesome. So I now have my very own sparkly.
Normally I wouldn’t be in such a rush to earn money right now but the guitar is half Deanna’s until I pay her back. I also need to buy fabric for an outfit ’cause some friends are having a medieval costume party in just a few short months. So, if you can help me out I would be much obliged.
Here’s what I have for sale:
Complete R.M. Ballantyne Adventure Library (20 Volumes)

Hiya, I dont want to buy the books but I thinks its great you are selling them to pay off ure guitar. However I have a medevil costume that I am willing to send u if u let me know a safe. Address u r willing to give me. It probably wont fit u but if u use a big belt and maybe do a bit of fancy sewing u can make it fit. I am obviously going to pay for postage and packaging and if u dont like it sell it on to someone else to raise more money for your guitar! Please bear in mind I live in scotland so if u need the outfit urgently my option might not be the best! Let me know when u can! Aileen xx ps I can send u a pic of the outfit if u like? X
