Thanks for the update Jim.

OK gang, Jim is still in the hole some cash.
We've collected $80 so far (with some promises of more to come).
Jim has paid out $103.45

We are still short $23.45.

Thank you, phabox.  And everybody else, for that matter.  While I'll throw in if it becomes necessary, I personally think covering the return postage on the books sent to me is enough for the moment if others are helping.  You're not just helping JVJ out here; you're helping the scanners as well.


I have to agree with you Eric, as my shipping costs was $21.62 with insurance to sent them back, but definitely worth every penny for the books we get to see from it, some we might not every get a chance to see.

So please give if you can, so we get to see more of these 'jewels' in the future which JVJ has and is so willing to share with us here.

Just paypaled a humble donation to the fund ($15) from faraway Norway. Thanks to everyone involved!
(And if I may add a personal preference: Keep the Horror coming! ;))

That's what I like to see!  +1 karma for a generous GAC member who enjoys his horror.  ;)
And it sounds like you'll be seeing JVJ precode horror books in the new year Ubantuban.  Stay tuned.

Thanks for the update Jim.
Did Astrp3's first donation of $25 arrive?  He sent it around Jan.28 according to this post.


If he did we are short - $2.75

If he did not we are short - $27.75

Either way, gang we are all enjoying Jim's wonderful books he's been happy to send out to scanners.
The scanners are covering the return postage but we all need to step up and help Jim cover his own costs to send these out to the scanners.

Please, if you can help please make a donation to Jim's PayPal account.
orders@bpib.com

Let's all help out gang,
-Yoc

If he's K.S., Yoc,
then I got it. Sorry that I didn't report it sooner. It's not always easy matching up real people to fake names.

Hi Jim,
I think the donation date would be the best indicator if PayPal keeps track of them for you.
I don't know Astrp3's real name either.

For now I'll assume his $25.00 made it to you and we are short $2.75.  Please correct me if I'm wrong.

Astrp3 mentioned a second $25.00 would arrive at some point as well which would give us a little buffer again.
