I got an amazon giftcard in the mail today, and I'm thinking about ordering some black library novels.

There are some very, very cheap 40k paperbacks on amazon. Has anyone ordered cheap, used books from amazon before?

I'm not expecting mint condition here, just want to make sure I'm not going to pay for something with coffee stains all over it.

Thanks for the quick reply, thats good to hear. There are so many well priced novels to choose from, I have 7 in my cart already and I see about 4 more I want, too. Its going to be hard to narrow it down to what I can get on this card lol.

I have never had a problem ordering used videogames from Amazon in the past so I'm sure the books are just as good.

Also keep in mind Amazon has buyer protection on all marketplace items so if you're not satisfied you can get a refund.

JC, I just figured that with a name like OrkPork, the last thing I should have is a serious avatar.

But, anyway, I ordered First and Only by Abnett, Fifteen Hours by Scanlon, Soul HUnter by Dembski-Bowden, and Dark Apostle by Reynolds.

Gerhart, sometimes the best things in life are the nasty things.

Priest, glad to hear I picked wisely. I figured it was a good balance between Chaos and Imperial Guard (2 areas I need to read more in) and rounding out my Space Wolf collection.

Ciaphas Cain is great, I agree. Hilarious stuff. I've read Caves of Ice and a couple of the short stories.

My favorite is the First Siege of Perlia (whatever Novel it's part of)

Iv read at least 50 black library books and Soul Hunter and the rest of the seriesare the best books I have ever read, they're the reason why i am a Night Lord enfusiast online. But I will always be an ape shit Blood Angels Death Company player in real life, my army puts Kharn and his Berserkers to shame :P
