Really, I think I am just so stubborn. The books are WAY under-priced and such hard work to produce. Bad business decision on my part. I didn't think people would pay a higher price for them, and then they ordered them in droves. And then I felt like I should keep the set together. So, I kept producing at a loss. I'm a dope. I haven't taken on more than a few new orders in the last several years, because I had a handful of old orders to fulfill, but I am done with them and just have to scan, package and mail them. I will go ahead and put the other remaining remarques up for sale, soon. There are a few left I held on to in case some book was lost or damaged, but now I can move them. I even have a couple of volume I left. LOL! Really, I think I am just so stubborn. The books are WAY under-priced and such hard work to produce. Bad business decision on my part.

I chuckled when I read this, I thought you would have stopped after the two you did for me. (if you recall the first two got lost in the mail and you had to do two more) But of course I want one more - I am waiting for you to finish the series and put out a massive deluxe edition, collecting the entire series. I am also hoping I can afford your commission rate at that time. :-) ‘I will not do any more of the remarqued books like this in the future’.
