 I have been checking out Thriftbooks . I have been reading customer posts on  Facebook; their official page and their fan page . It seems interesting. One way to check  them out is to order books from them. This is what I did. The books below is what I ordered.  Here are the three books that I ordered from the Thriftbooks site. They are all by Tim Severin - website on him.  I had ordered three books from the Thriftbooks site. I wanted to see how long it took for them to get to me, how well they are packed and what kind of shape they were when they arrived.  I had ordered them on 2023 / 11 /17. They arrived on 2023 / 11 / 25. I had received texts  from them when the order was received, when it was shipped and when it was expected to have arrived here. It arrived when they indicated that it would.  They were packed quite well. There was no damage to the books when I opened the shipping package. I opened the books and there was no damage to any ...

  Here is an image I copied from the internet. It is the cover for the Adventures of Tintin. I found a site that has the Adventures of Tintin to download. The site is the Internet Archive . One can download the different books.  It shows them in different formats. They are in Abby GZ, Daisy, EPUB,  full text, item tile, JPEG, PDF, PDF with text, single page processed JP2 zip, torrent. I don't know most of these file formats. The one that I used and like most is the PDF file format.

I think reading these e-books on ones phone, tablet computer or computer is neat, actually having the books in h...

  This is an image from the Disney Goofy Adventures section of the Internet Archives site . I had found out about a comic book from Disney called Walt Disney Goofy Adventures. I found this Internet Archives site that had the issues that one could download.  They had them in different formats. The file formats are CHOCR, comic book RAR, comic book zip, full text, HOCR, item tile, JPEG, OCR page index, OCR search text, page number JSON, PDF, single page processed JP2 zip, and torrent.  I chose the PDF file format. One just goes to that section and downloads the files. The PDF files can be read by any program that can open a PDF file. One downloads the issues individually. One can also open them at the site and one can download the zip file version of each. I did all three.  They have a list of the different issues. There are 17 in total.  Balboa De Goofy, and Goofy Frankenstein Part 1 Goofy Frankenstein Part 2, Goofy Peary at the North Pole, and Goof Brothers at K...
