Title: Academic Books
Post by: Tazar on February 25, 2014, 01:39:39 PM
Looking to buy Academic Books - 24 to 36 if available over time.  Please let me know if you have any to sell.

Boy, that one is good for a laugh!  (Sorry)  Let's just say you will likely be waiting a *long* time, because they are very hard to come by.  If you *do* find whomever it is that is consistently snagging them, find out their price and let us know.

I have been lucky enough to get two of them so far, but they are rare.  I figure someone has to be grabbing them so I hope to lure them into a deal.  We'll see.  Sometimes I get lucky - sometimes not.  Worst case I can tell Mesanna they book-case from the 11th anniversary collection would sell well if in the store as a separate item.   I'd also love to see the Vollum in a Crystal's for sale in the store.

Are you planning on recreating the library from Falling Waters over here? I know someone based the design of the Great Library in North Gilfane on that. *whistles nervously*

You should go check out the Gilfane Library in North Gilfane.   While there take a look at all the other houses.

If someone stole it - I am stealing it back.   lol   I am doing something similar - but not *quite* the same.

I don't think the Library is an exact copy, it's just the two-story stacked bookcases overlooked by a gallery that I used as the basis. I think the frontage, lower floor and interior decoration are completely different. I went back to FWF to have a look, but all the entrances seem blocked off by hedges now?

(https://www.gilfane.com/Files/GreatLibrary.jpg)

But my six illusion plots in North Gilfane were inspired by FWF. I was blown away by the scale of what I saw, having only ever previously constructed a three building illusion lot to that point. I even acquired and demolished one of the most desirable castles on Siege to make room. However, I believe the Library was the only one based upon a FWF building.

See what an inspiration you are to us all, Tazar? *laughs*

Aye.   The King on Atlantic kinda made me mad (a Captain of his guard kidnapped my daughter) so I tried to assassinate him - only my aim was bad and I killed the Minoc Governor by accident.  He's had an "occupation force" around my house for the last 3 weeks or so that come and go in waves.

I've barricaded the doors rather than log-in to find myself killed by the invaders.

Being exiled to Siege isn't all that bad.   ;)

I can give you one bookshelf already made by Slave Children which I picked up at an idoc - Where should I drop it?

Thanks.  :)

I have a mailbox at my house in the Southwest Corner of Luna (Monolith's old location if you know that one).  It's the house with vines and virtue banners showing around the outside.

I dropped off 159 cloth and the bookcase - enjoy!
