Back To Top

I have the 10 disc, unabridgment of MURDER LIST by Julie Garwood.  On disc 1, there's a number of skips between tracks 49 and 58.  Now it did not skip when I played it on my computer or in my car CD player.  But it did skip briefly when I played it on my personal CD player and also skipped pretty badly when I played it on my "cheap" desktop CD player.

Those affected tracks equate to about 8 to 10 minutes.  The remainder of the approximately 11 hours plays fine.

I would like to offer this audiobook on CD for ONE CREDIT.

Please pm me if you're interested

THIS HAS BEEN TAKEN.  THANKS!!

Thanks, Jan

I only have two audio 'books' on my shelf, and people have ordered them thinking they were regular book, then canceled.

Tired of this runaround, I would like to offer you a free audiobook of mystery short stories, "Clean American Fun" edited by Otto Penzler, if you order "Rainbow Six" by Tom Clancy from my shelf.

Thanks for looking at my post

I have just posted this book to my bookshelf.

ISBN's, cover, large print are exact duplicates of the hardcover edition, but the book I posted to my account is a trade size, soft cover version.  Ex-library, but in real good condition.

If you are interested, please order from my small bookshelf and feel free to select another PB as a freebie.  HB's not included in this offer.

Thanks.

I have two unpostable unabridged audio books to offer for a total of 2 credits for both audio books. 

MALICE consists of 13 CD's.  Disk 2 has some kind of liquid damage and won't play beyond track 8 without excessive skips.   The ultimate test of the playability of a CD is in my car CD player, and this won't play in my car without major skips.  I listened to the entire story which is over 15 hours long and not being able to listen to disk 2 in its entirety did not affect my ability to follow the story.   With the exception of disk 2, the rest of the CD's played without incident.

COLD TRUTH consists of 7 CD's.  Disk 2 has a small pinhole in it,  and track 8 has some skips in it.  But I listened to the entire track in my car CD player.    With the exception of disk 2, the other CD's played without incident. 

I would like two credits for this pair of audio books.  If you're interested or have questions, please pm me. 

 

Cold Truth (Truth, Bk 1) (Audio CD) (Unabridged) :: Mariah Stewart, Anna Fields (Narrator)

Malice :: Lisa Jackson

Thanks, Jan

Just posted the above MP-3 CD which I bought new from Audiobookstand.com.  I had to post it without its ISBN because PBS's database (which is acquired from an outside source) is set to exclude listings that have "MP-3 Audio" as the book type. 

Click on my bookshelf and you'll find this MP-3 CD audio book, EXCLUSIVE by Sandra Brown.
