  • Small, thin book sold for ridiculous prices

    This is a very small, & thin book, about the size of a normal paperback but about one quarter of the thickness, with very spaced out text on less than 100 pages. 30 of which are blank or contain a glossary most readers would know. This is a simplistic volume that contains less information than you can find on the internet by reading a few webpages. For some reason books on junk rigs appear to go for premium prices. In some case ridiculously so. Don't pay more than £10. £5 would be generous enough.
