[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We got a very large book set — dozens of volumes, on a topic that neither of us was interested in.  At the time we were both starting graduate school and in a life phase where we would be moving a lot and living in apartments.   It was many many boxes to move.  No one will take it for donation, and I can get rid of it on Craigslist.  I sprained my wrist when it was delivered trying to life if off our front stoop because it weighs so much.  The same set is available digitally in a searchable lightweight format, which is why literally no one wants it.  The kicker is that I know it was not a regift and it cost a lot of money.  It was such a waste.  We have paid to move it 3 times, still have it and use it for things like lifting up a computer monitor or weighting down items.  I just feel bad throwing it in the trash.  I think the gift giver is just the type that thinks everyone likes what he likes and didn’t realize this was really a niche present — he didn’t want to be boring and just get something off the registry and genuinely thought this was a great gift.

What was the topic ?[/quote]

I'm dying to know the topic! It must be something like military history to encompass so many books that a bulk pickup would be needed to take them all away![/quote]
