Hi Scott

I hate to be the bearer of bad news but the selling of books is not aloud on PBS. You may offer a deal for PBS credits but you can not ask for $.

Book selling on PBS is not allowed. Books can only be swapped for credits & only credits can be sold here.

THey have  closed accounts for things like this. I doubt they will now since you removed it quickly.

Since the heading remains, members could still contact him for the $.75 books . . .

No problem, Scott -- thanks for editing that out.  They have to be strict about stuff like that because of IRS rules.  If we become a book-selling site, we're placed in a different category.  It would be a good idea to edit the thread's subject, too.

If I saw that heading, I'd "head" for him and the $ .75 deal.
