In most cases, I can offer combined shipping discounts on multiple items.

You do not need to do anything. Place your order for your items, and when I am fulfilling your order, I will credit back excess shipping fees to your account.

If your item arrives damaged by the post, please notify me within 48 of receipt via Etsy messaging.

Include photographs clearly detailing the condition of the item. I cannot take action on any claims that do no include photographic evidence of damage.

Upon our receipt of evidence of damage, depending upon the type of item ordered, at our discretion, we will either initiate an insurance claim or send you a replacement item.

If an insurance claim is initiated, you will be required to make a brief online statement attesting to the damage, and provide your photos to the insurer. Upon completion of that step, we will be able to issue a refund for the order.

If you realize the error prior to receiving a notification that the item has shipped, message me via Etsy right away.

Unfortunately, once a package is shipped out to an incorrect address, there is nothing I can do to change the situation.

Please make sure your address within Etsy is correct before finalizing your order.

Returns are only accepted for items not as described.

To request a return, please contact me within 3 days of delivery. Late requests may be declined.

The item must be returned in the same condition as when we sent it - I.E - "as new", salable condition. Return shipping is at the buyers expense.

Refunds will be credited upon our receipt of the item in the same condition as when we shipped it to you.


I recommend that you purchase tracking and insurance for the return package, as items lost or damaged during return shipping when not insured cannot be refunded.

NOTE: Refunds are for the item price only.

As per our policies page, we are diligent about our descriptions, and in more than 9 years on Etsy, have never had a return

I advertise that I buy book collections online and locally. I also buy from other dealers - everyone has a different market niche, so I can buy what they aren't really interested in handling. Estate dealers and local libraries are another potential source depending upon the time of year.

Overseas orders must go through customs. Customs has no obligation as to how long it takes them to process shipments and there is no way to contact them regarding a package.

As such, we must wait for 60 days from the last date the package showed activity in Etsy's tracking system before we can initiate a "lost package" claim.

If a claim is initiated, you will be required to complete a brief online statement stating that you have not received the package. Upon our being notified that this step is completed to the satisfaction of the insurer, we will process a refund for the lost order

On occasion such events do occur.

If the postal service shows that the item was delivered, your only recourse is to print the tracking information out and take it to your post office and present the information to your post master or appropriate agent at the post for them to inquire about.

Once an item show "delivered" by the post, there is nothing we can do on our end in this situation.

Once an order has not shown any activity in the Etsy/Postal tracking system for 30 days, it can be considered lost and a claim can be initiated.

You will receive a link to an online form where you will need to complete a brief statement attesting that you have not received the package(s).

Upon our notification that this step has been completed to the satisfaction of the insurer, we can initiate a refund for the order.
