Ms Chia's charity booksale

Hi everyone!

I'm selling off some of my lit books as well as the more frivolous books/magazines for charity. I've done some research on the reputation/governance of the two charities i have in mind and they are:

1. Dover Park Hospice
2. The Singapore Children's Society

I've put up the list of books I'm selling on Google Docs under the Vjclitrocks account. 100% of all proceeds will go to the charities and you get to choose which one of the two to give it to! Once all the sales close, I will donate the collected sums and announce to you the sum donated, with documentation.

To Access Google Docs, you will need to:

1. Go to gmail.com
2. Type in vjclitrocks in the username
3. Type in the password: you should remember this or get it from your lit rep or me
4. You will see the inbox of the Vjclitrocks account: that's not it. Just look to the TOP LEFT HAND CORNER of the INBOX and you will see 'DOCUMENTS' in tiny font. Click on it and Voila, you are at the list.

The charity sale is run on an auction style. So even if you are later, if you are prepared to GIVE a HIGHER price, you just type your price over the previous price, and your contact details over the lower bid. Please observe the honour system of not poaching another person's details or typing over their auction bid unfairly. It's only fair if your bid is higher than theirs!

All bids will be closed on 20 December 2007, 12 noon, Singapore time. This list of books is NOT COMPLETE. I will be adding extra lists of items for charity up to 1 December 2007. Pls buy loads of books and give loads :)
