Bought new by Seller at issue and stored ever since.
Background / Quality
I have been a book collector for more than 45 years. As we prepare to become empty nesters and
downsize, I am selling off all the books I have collected over the years. I was the pickiest acquirer around. I’d often go to many bookstores when I
couldn’t locate a blemish free copy of a book at my local store. I read less than 10% of the books I
collected. When I did read a book, I’d
barely spread the book open so as to avoid spine stress (What can I say, I was
a geek). Often, the book would simply go
into storage. Books that I acquired new
have been stored in a smoke-free environment, always. As a result, I have accumulated some really
nice copies of books published up to 50 years ago.
The photos on this listing have been taken in such a way as to
disclose the few flaws that there may be in our books. We are happy to provide more
information/photos upon request.
Pricing
We’ve done everything we can to preserve the “newness” of the
books we offer for sale. So, unless the “collectability”
of a particular book has driven its market price range higher than cost (as
shown in prior ebay auctions), we try to offer the books at a modest discount
to new (approximately 10%).
Shipping
All purchases will be well protected for shipment. We’ve shipped 100’s of collectible items over
the years (books, art, figurines, action figures), and haven’t yet had a
shipping damage claim (knocking on wood with one hand while I type this).
International Buyers
Import duties, taxes and charges are not included in the item
price or shipping charges. These charges are the buyer's responsibility
and are normally collected by the delivering freight (shipping) company or when
you pick the item up. Due to U.S. regulations, items will NOT be shipped
as gifts. The customs form will describe the item and the total value
paid.
Multiple Item Shipping Discount
I will combine shipments from listings to reduce your shipping
costs.
Returns
My goal is to make this a pleasant and worthwhile buying
experience for you. If you are unsatisfied with your purchase for
any reason, please contact me.
Feel free to contact me with any questions.
