Sold by an independent and solo ex-bookshop owner, with more than 40 years of experience, who takes pride in listing and researching every volume. Someone who does not consider books as mere square objects with printing inside, fixed only on selling in high quantities as quickly as possible, but one who takes deep interest not only in the book itself, but also its history.
I am open to sensible offers on all my listings, and I am also happy to combine postage on multiple orders - please enquire before ordering. NB. even 1 grm over 2kgs doubles the cost . Over 5kgs best in 2 packages.
