How
to order
This is a self-made website by
little
old me, and while
it might be big, it is not sophisticated.
The little
icon takes you to a generic order form where you
can type in the
author,
title, price, and indicate whether you would
like to send me a check or
PayPal payment. I will confirm
availability via e-mail, and once
I've received payment, I'll ship the book.
It's that easy.
If you have questions, please don't
hesitate to ask via
email.

Condition
Grades
There's a standard bookseller
vocabulary, with terms like Fine,
Very Good, Good and Poor to assess
condition (to see these
terms
defined, click on the link above). Most of
my books are in Very
Good
or better condition, and I tend to overemphasize
their flaws so that
any
surprise is a pleasant one. Feel free to
ask questions, and if
the
book isn't in the condition described, you may
return it for a full
refund.

Lists
If I don't have the book you seek
in
stock, I will retain
your book search in my wants files and email you
when I do
have a copy for sale. If you don't hear back
from me immediately, that
probably means I don't have a copy right
now. But fear not,
I keep extensive files and never stop
looking.... so send
me
your request; you've got nothing to
lose!
