Frequently asked questions

How are books shipped?

All books will be sent media mail unless customer requests and pays for an upgrade. Free shipping of books will be sent Media Mail.

Do you combine shipping on multiple items?

I will combine shipping costs on multiple items .

What is vintage condition?

Because items are vintage, the noticeable flaws that an item contains will be in the description. No refunds will be made if the description noted these flaws.

If a flaw is noticed not contained in the description, the customer should notify me so the item can be returned or a resolution can be reached.

Seller is not responsible for damage caused during shipping.

What happens if item is damaged during shipping?

If item is damaged during shipping please take several pictures of the packaging and the damaged item. Contact me immediately sending the pictures. If the item was insured, I will file a claim and reimburse you once the claim refund is received. Please note Priority Shipping insurance does not include recovery for shipping charges. USPS Select Ground delivery requires the separate purchase of insurance. If this is your shipping method, please inform me during purchase if you would like the item insured.

What is policy on Free Shipping?

Free Shipping is for mainland U.S. only, unless it is through media mail. I cannot ship items Free to Alaska and Hawaii. However, I will work with customers to negotiate a fair shipping price to Alaska or Hawaii.

If an item is advertised with Free Shipping, that item will be shipped in the most economical way by the Seller. This may be by Fed Ex or USPS ground on large items. All books will be shipped by Media Mail. If buyer would like to pay for an upgrade on shipping, or wants to purchase additional insurance, please contact me.

Do you ship out of the United States and Canada?

I ship to countries outside the U.S. and Canada - However, since COVID19, shipping to some countries has been prohibited. Additionally, I have experienced long delays in shipments and arrival dates out of U.S. - so please contact me and I will give you my best advice on the wisdom of the purchase and how long it might take to get your purchase.

Do you ship to Germany?

I cannot ship to Germany because of the new restrictions in effect in 2022.
