    Form book sale

    For sale: British horseracing official form books. Almost every year, Flat and National Hunt, from the mid-1970s to about 2010. Some will have my personal annotations (times, ratings, etc). Several form annuals are unopened, still in their original boxes. Others are generally in excellent condition.


    £10 per book, plus P&P. Or make me an offer.

    Very hard to find a buyer for second hand books of any description -the local charity shops don't take them these days.

    I haven't asked the charity shops simply due to the nature of the books. It's almost like asking them to take scuddy books.

    I've also had to bin a large collection of VHS films. Nobody wants them because everybody has got rid of their VHS players.

    I'd think that taking to ebay would be your best bet for getting rid of them. Auction with a minimum reserve price.
