Collyer disease

Not that anybody wants to think of acquiring any more books at this point in the semester, but there's a big used book sale next weekend and the week after. I will probably go, because I am addicted to paper matter and thus doomed to die like those pack rat brothers in New York who were found smothered under the weight of their own hoarded newspapers.

That sounds very tempting, but do you go the first day or wait until entry is free?

I think I'll probably wait at least until the entry is 3 bucks, because I think the people who pay to go on the first day are probably used book dealers who want to try to find first editions and stuff. (My grandma used to deal books, and she'd always get to things like this at like 5 am on the first day...)
