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. |

Wants 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! |
Not listed?
Not everything is listed on-line. Let me know what you're looking for.
