Selling some of my reference material

[Jim Lapenta]

Now that I am retiring from teaching, I am going to be selling the bulk of my reference materials. Including SDI/TDI instructor manuals, NAUI reference and student materials, oxyhacker manual, reg service references, etc.
I'll get a list put together later today to post. Due to a bicycle accident, I'm in a wheelchair and on a walker and staying at my girlfriend's and getting to my place for an hour or so each day so shipping may take a day or two to get out once I receive payment. But they will go out as soon as I can get them packed.
In the meantime, tell me what you are looking for and I'll let you know if I have it. My library of materials, references, and some student materials is fairly extensive.
Thanks

Wow. That is quite an offer. Thank you and I look forward to seeing your list.

Ironic that your icon is you with a bicycle. I wish you a short and complete recovery from your incident. Remember, a wheelchair is just an upright recumbent bicycle. So you're still a cyclist.

Good luck and god bless.

I'm so sorry to hear about your accident Jim, indeed wishing you the best in your recovery.

 

[formernuke]

Sorry to hear about your accident.

I might be interested in oxyhacker and any tec materials you might have.

 

[sea_ledford]

Definitely interested in your Oxygen Hackers book!

Not in a hurry for shipping either, been looking for it for years...

 

[goldfishtornado]

Wanted to add to the wishes for a speedy and full recovery.

I'd also be interested in oxyhacker, but I don't have an immediate need for it. And @formernuke seems to have managed to beat me to the post button...

 

[goldfishtornado]

Definitely interested in your Oxygen Hackers book!

I guess there is still quite a bit of demand even though it's out of print. Did anyone ever hear anything from someone who might be able to authorize licensing?

The last I saw was this thread. But it seems to have died.
