Note to Buyers:

I am selling hundreds of collectible Star Trek books which has taken me nearly a year to organize, compile, grade, describe, and photograph so please see all my other Star Trek book auctions this month. Most of the book auction sales can be combined for economical shipping with a few exceptions (e.g., the early "numbered" Star Trek book auctions where I've already combined ~50 books together so those boxes are already pretty big and heavy so I have specifically excluded those very few auctions from a combined shipping option).

Please note that this combined shipping option is available for domestic US customers by simply waiting for me to gather your auction wins together and quote you a revised shipping cost.  Unfortunately eBay prohibits sellers from direct invoicing or combining shipping for international buyers; in fact, we aren't allowed to be involved in what they charge you.  If you buy more than one item as an international buyer, the eBay automated system mindlessly adds all the individual shipping costs up when, in fact, your items could have been combined for a shipping cost saving. If this happens to you, please message me and I have a way of remedying that situation. For domestic buyers, if you buy more than one item during any given week, do not pay the automated eBay invoice that is issued at the auction close, rather please wait for me to issue you a combined shipping invoice. Please note that given I am selling nearly 400 books, I will need the following day to work out how to combine your multiple auction wins. Luckily, all these Star Trek books qualify for economical Media Mail shipping although I did provide a secondary Priority Mail shipping option if you need the items quickly. 

I have provided numerous photos of the books so please inspect those photos carefully for any issues before you make a purchase. I have attempted to grade the books using the ABE Books system and note any major flaws with the volumes. I have provided a lot of photos for you to examine to inspect the condition of any given item.    

I have other Star Trek collectible items for sale, including 1990's-era action figures, vintage Star Trek collectibles from the 1970s and 1980s, belt buckles, die-cast models, and other unique Star Trek collectibles so please see those other auctions also. Thanks.
