Store Description

Thank you very much for looking at the items I am selling. I am not a professional bookseller, but a book lover and collector who now needs to down size a large part of my wide and varied collection, thus all the items offered here are from my own private collection which I look after very carefully. Item descriptions are as accurate as possible, if I have any doubts then I err on the cautious side, I would much rather you are pleasantly surprised by a better than expected condition than be disappointed. In most instances orders received before mid-afternoon will be dispatched that day, if I cannot do this then I will notify you as soon as possible. I aim to provide the best service I can, a level of service I would want to receive from sellers. I used to sell on Amazon but Amazon have got more and more difficult as far as small sellers are concerned to the point that it is not worth the time and effort nor the stress, they are also very greedy. If you have any queries please don't hesitate to contact me. Thanks again Deltic20
