PROMOTING NBS ON EBAY

"To fund my return to grad school, I've been slowly but surely selling off non-essential parts of my numislit library on EBay. This has been going on for a little over 4 months. Every bidder who bids on an item of mine receives the attached message. I've been keeping count, and 9 persons who received this message are now E-Sylum subscribers (there may have been some that I missed). Might work for other NBS members auctioning items on similar services...."

The message reads, in part: "If you have an especial interest in numismatic literature, you might find the following sites of particular interest:

http://www.coinbooks.org

http://NumisLit.listbot.com"

The second reference is a moderated email list Larry runs for general discussions of numismatic literature topics. The list is independent of NBS, and intended as a free-form discussion list, unlike The E-Sylum, which is an edited publication.
