John Barrowman's Book

 So, I now have two copies of John Barrowman's book. Does anyone want one?

I bought a second copy because I was worried that they were checking receipts and only letting people with the right type meet him, and I really wanted to meet him. But when I got to the front of the queue it probably wouldn't have mattered. So now I have two books, exactly the same, both autographed by both John Barrowman but also his sister Carole E Barrowman. Various people have told me I should just put one on eBay, but I feel this should be a last resort at best, because I definitely DON'T want to make a profit on it, too much like tauting [sp?] assuming people do want it, and because maybe no one will want it. However, if I try to sell it lower than RRP then that would be nearly as bad because someone might have been willing to pay full price and while I would be losing mone rather than John it still feels a bit wrong.

So, if anyone would like an autographed copy of 'Anything Goes', at RRP price of £18.99, let me know and I'll work something out so nobody loses or makes money. Otherwise it'll keep propping up a table or something...

OMG I would love it, but am in the states, so if that isn't an issue, I'd be willing to figure whatever out...

OK well since you have replied I'll say you can have it unless we can't agree a way to get it to you, in which case I'll see if anyone else wants it. Email me isicle@gmail.com and we can get chatting :D

Damn. I was so excited for a second lol. I'm also in the States but I have a cousin in the UK that I'm visiting the last week of March. Let me know if you can't work something out with the first poster.

*sighs* I have already bought a book online but would die with happiness to have one signed by them both. If it does not work out please let me know. I'm also in the USA.

The anon comment above is from me, of course. Sorry about this.

I'm really sorry, but I think my computer has malfunctioned. It was unfair of me to say you could be second reserve when there were people that had commented before you that I hadn't realised were there. I'm going to refresh everything and check back and then tell you a new place. Sorry again, I didn't think it would be so popular!

Hey can I friend you too, since, well, we like pretty much all the same stuff? :)

[identity profile] altogetherisi.livejournal.com 2008-02-19 07:15 am (UTC)(link)
Yes of course! I'll just go steal your memes and leave a million comments on your lj now then... :D

Well MRRRPH... This is what I miss for not being on LJ for a few hours while I sleep... Ah well-

[identity profile] ladyfox7oaks.livejournal.com 2008-02-18 07:58 pm (UTC)(link)

I'm not asking to be a reserve (I'm trying to resist spending money), just posting to say, I think it's awesome that you're selling your extra copy. :]

It would be awesome to have an autographed copy, but I'm saving as much cash as possible for my trip to England late this summer, and already thinking the $21, I'm going to be spending for getting it here in the states when it comes out in a few months, is more than I should be spending (but who can resist a book about John, especially when it's one of those things that you can actually purchase within the country you live in), much less $40+ plus shipping with the exchange rate and all xD

I'm sure whoever ends up getting it though, will completely cherish it. :D
