These things always seem more valuable than they are. You probably cant give them away. Try a school.

Hi, Poochy. Could you please put me down for the game, thank you.
Just been wrapping up a couple of prezzies. Double-sided tape everywhere; gruesome stuff. Large glass of wine, please.....

I'm afraid I have no idea of the value of your set of books. Since there are various editions, styles of binding and ages it really could be anything. Best ask a book dealer but I suspect, if it is a modern set, as Jeffmack suggests it won't be very much. If you were to see a set for sale in a dealers shop I would reckon he would not offer much more than half that. Private sale would be the way to go. As for buying them, not a chance I regret. I always look up Britannica on the web, it's free you know.
Just an afterthought, but have you tried reading them, LOL.

'Ello everybody, just off up the wooden hill and thought I'd catch up on posties.
All Xmas shopping done, five pressies and a load of cheques [its what the young 'uns want as posting from here's so expensive], BUT, what THEY don't know is mrs.lw leaves in the morning obn the early bird flight to uk to spend a fortnight with her ma & family.
Me can't go as me has to look after Brandy Boy our American Rag Doll cat, he, he!
Two weeks on my own, 1st party starts at 11pm tommorrow night, all welcome, sorry its late but I'm playing golf all day, he he.

1st party starts, not just one 14 day party then? Her indoors would like a Rag Doll cat but they're a bit clingy, she would never go out. I have some relatives in SA, we can't send anything to them by post, it never arrives, even Christmas Cards go missing. Presents have no chance, sad isn't it?
