Where to find ST TNG Pocket Book series

[Louigi Verona]

Hey everyone!

I am building up a collection of all St TNG Pocket books, particularly the numbered series. Can someone advice what are the best places to look for these books?

Of course, I have used ebay to buy some of them, but, surprisingly, not too much offers there. I was also once or twice lucky to get several titles from used book stores in Europe. Currently I myself live in Europe.

I'd suggest Abebooks.com and bookdepository.com

If you're looking for specific books, you can let us know and maybe someone here has them for sale (I know I have a few TNG bookss for sale, and wouldn't mind sending them to Europe)

In my experience Abebooks.com and used book stores are good. Used book stores are almost guarenteed to have TOS but I've found a fair number of TNG books most places I've been.

Use book stores are a good place to find the Numbered TNG books. I found a lot of them at my local used book store and got Several of the TNG books like Q squared and several Data books I didn't have in my collection.

I find used book stores to be the best place to find old Trek books. I have also noticed that no one ever donates one Trek book but usually many at once so there is a good selection.

Are you only interested in paperbacks? Pretty much all of the TNG numbered books are available in e-book form.

 

[Louigi Verona]

Yeah, I am interested in paperbacks. I am happy to consume them in ebook form or even better audio book form, but I would like to own the collection

I tried searching Abebooks.com, but I understand that I can only find individual books. It might help when I am searching for select titles. but right now I own only 60% of the Numbered series and not all of them are in good shape too.

Amazon second hand market is excellent because you can select via price, condition, added postage or ratings by customers.

I actually tried it and don't remember seeing many results.

Huh?

9,488 results for Books : "Star Trek Next Generation"
https://www.amazon.com/s/ref=nb_sb_...ation&rh=n:283155,k:Star+Trek+Next+Generation

Now, not all of those 9,488 books are "numbered" TNG novels, but many of them are.

A lot of them are one cent each, plus postage.

Another thing you might want to try is garage sales. I remember about 10 years ago I bought a box of TOS novels with maybe 20 or 30 books in it. $5 for the box and they were all mine. Sure I had some duplicates, but I managed to sell those to a used book store and get my $5 back. I don't know if garage/yard sales (or are they called boot sales?) are popular in Europe, but you never know what you'll find at those types of sales.

Or even check out estate sales.

There is always the second-hand market on Amazon.
I have bought many books there and they are in great condition.

Though my big sets I buy on eBay for rock-bottom prices.
