My round of bad luck still has not ended. I was surprised to get a call from V today (whose voice i couldn't recognise - sorry!! :p) telling me that someone wanted to buy my 2005 tax legislation. i thought it was a bit weird since it is the holidays now. Anyway, I was very grateful for the call...some people are so nice :)
On the other end of the spectrum, there are just some people that can annoy the hell out of you. the condition of my book was brand new - so new that it's still in its plastic cover..haha. the rrp of the book was $76.95. so taking into account depreciation, i decided to sell the book at $45.
i called this potential buyer. she wanted it at 40 cause she said bookshop was selling for 50. ok i was fine with that. the meeting place was uts library at 3pm. buses at our place are usually good but today..waited waited and waited for an hour before a very packed bus emerged to take me to the station before catching a train to the city. got to the library, called her and she goes her cousin had just got her the book!!!
i wonder what next surprise is 'planned' for me. i hope the new year will bring better luck....

I hate people like that. People who promises you something, and then turn around & does something else! They are positively ANNOYING!You should put up her name & blacklist her or something, so she can never get a 2ndhand book in uni again.. hohohohoo! Karma.
