The Never-Ending Book Sale Story Part IV

A reasonably pleasant surprise to start of with: The delivery list (that arrives before the actually delivery) was longer than expected. Unpleasant surprise: Old editions with a new edition ISBN barcode sticker on the back being delivered rather than actual new editions. Stats for today:

  • Requested Books: 1593 (Unavailable books deducted from last count
  • Arrived So Far: 1322 (83.0%)
  • Books in New Delivery: 831
  • Netto Weight of New Delivery: 916.73 kg
Package assembly has not yet started (no time and no bags). Sales scheduled to start Friday, possibly even Thursday. Negotiation with the supplier about mislabeled books is due to take place.
Until that time only an official dinner and some other stuff to do...
