New Arrivals Weekly Roundup 2013-02-24
First, happy birthday (yesterday), to Chris!
This week, I’m showing you everything we’ve added to inventory, whether we have it for sale or not… And I know this is going to be painful enough (to me) that I’ll end up writing some functionality whereby I can just say, “Show all the things we’ve added to our inventory between X and Y,” so I don’t have do manually type out each thing… which I’m about to do.

Wow! What a list. I sure was busy last week. Unfortunately, though, most of these books are not for sale for one reason or another (we want to read, we’re adding to to our Penguin collection, we can’t sell them for enough for it to be worth our while, etc.). The ones that are for sale will be found on our Amazon.com storefront* the usual disclaimers apply: Our images will almost always have the orange background as shown here (the exception is the “main” image; amazon requires that to be on a white background, so if we’ve designated an image as main, it won’t have the orange background). To find our prices, go to “available from these sellers” and look for Hurley House. If you do not find a copy available from us in the list, then we’ve sold it already.
By the way, yes, that was painful enough that I will be writing something to help me automate it… it’s just a matter of when.
