For the books mate all I can suggest is an internet search against the title. You can then check what you have against what's advertised, it will give you an idea of what they are currently selling for. There are a lot of book websites on the net mate so you should be able to find something.

Not sure if you're looking to sell the books? If you are let me know what you have. Myself and a few friends are avid readers so may be interested in buying some of them. thumbs
