About this Item

*** IF YOU LIVE OUTSIDE THE UK YOU MUST CHOOSE PRIORITY MAIL AT CHECKOUT SO I CAN SEND THE BOOKS AIR MAIL, TRACKED AND INSURED. DO NOT BUY THIS BOOKS IF YOU DO NOT INTEND TO PAY THE PRIORITY MAIL RATE BECAUSE YOUR ORDER WILL BE REFUSED AND I WILL NOT TRADE WITH YOU AGAIN. *** This is a UK first edition set - Parts One and Two - published by Private Libraries Association in 1971 and 1977 respectively . The photos show the condition better than I can describe, however overall I am grading the books as Very Good conditon. EACH book has a straight spine with firm corners and lightly softened spine ends. There is discoloration to the front cover of each - see photo - where the boards have rubbed, When you open Part ONE you will find a paper indent that states a previous owner's address. It's quite hard to see at first glance and I missed it first go round. When you open Part TWO book you will see the ghost mark of a previous owner label that has been removed, which nestles in the bottom corner. There is also the suggestion of an owner stamp to the title page, which has been removed. The page edges and interior text are both clean but the front end papers are sunned in places - mildly irritating at best; certainly it doesn't detract from the books' appearance in my opinion as a collector. The title page of Part One confirms the year of publication as 1971 and the copyright page states 1500 copies were printed, of which 700 are for sale. The title page of Part Two confirms the year of publication as 1977 and the copyright page states 2000 copies were printed, of which 700 are for sale.

Sale & Shipping Terms

Terms of Sale

All books in my store are my own and in my possession. I expect customers to read my listings fully and look at all photos and be aware of the terms. I will work with everyone to resolve issues but I expect the same courtesy back - if I don't reply to an email within 24 hours it means I haven't received it so you'll need to resend.

Shipping Terms

I charge shipping that reflects my actual costs. ABE only allows me to set one postage rate so I charge the rate for hardbacks sent in a box with bubble wrap and polystyrene peanuts. Where postage is less - eg a paperback or small hardback - I refund the difference once I get my receipts and know the exact cost. ALL UK parcels are tracked. if you live outside the UK tracking is NOT provided unless you choose priority mail. PRIORITY MAIL TRACKING IS IMMEDIATELY UPDATED otherwise I will only update ABE with UK tracking details on request, and only when 10 working days has passed. There will be times when, due to the value of the book, I will insist on priority mail and this will be clearly stated in my listing. If you ignore this, your order will be refused.
