the fleamarket is a fucking goldmine!

            One does never get enough of cultural artifacts. Although my main intention is to actually read these, you have to admit they make a good impression in the bookshelf :).
I used to cherrypick classics online and I still do for stuff that better resemble my specific taste. The problem is it costs too much just to buy a bunch of them. Then I saw that the fleamarket had a decent selection of classics if you just take your time and search for them.
I can't claim all of these are favorites, but at least most of them I know are popular classics and are of great importance if you want to understand the history of western culture.
The cons are that almost all of them are paperbacks, which means they won't last forever like the hardcovered ones. I don't really care though, most of them cost 20 sek (2 dollars these days).
I'll buy my own library when I get rich and famous.
