Some good books there but a bit old.
Chess Books for sale.
which of those would you recommend to a beginner(I'm around 1029 in rapid)? I would like to buy one but I'm not sure which one would benefit me the most.
For a beginner, anything at beginners' level is good.
Tom Watson has a reputation as one of the very best chess writers so English...e5 but it's in descriptive! Then there's also Pachman and Kotov. Just keep away from anything at all to do with Emmanuel Lasker.
@SquidDr, Thanks for the great deal on the books!
To everyone else considering a book or two (or more) from SquidDr, I have never met the man, but we came to an easy agreement on a couple of books last night and he already shipped them out first thing this morning. Good deals and quick turnaround - nice in today's world!
Hello! To those wondering in buying a book from here, I would recommend it. I followed the recommendations here and got two books for a good price. I was also sent a tracking number right away so it seems like a fair deal.
Which ones did you buy?
I got How to solve chess problems by Howard and Winning chess tactics by Horowitz
for the most part the books have been averaging $5 each (there are a few exceptions) and $3.33 for shipping via USPS media mail to continental US.
I have about 70 chess books I want to sell. I'm daunted by the task of listing them online, so I thought I'd try this first...
Look at the pictures, and message me if there is one you want.
If anyone is in the DC area and wants a lot of chess books, direct message me and we'll work something out for the whole lot (contactless pick up style).
I've had some requests for better pictures, so here you go:
