There are over 1,900 new books available on site. I regularly add additional descriptions and pictures, but you may encounter titles that don't have detailed descriptions. I regret this inconvenience, and want you to be assured that I'm adding them as fast as possible.
While I have over two hundred used and out-of-print titles at any given time, I have not been able to commit the time to adding them to the website. As sales on line continue to grow, I expect to do so. Maybe even this year....
I buy and sell used and out of print books, and will assist you in trying to find the title you are missing.
I really appreciate your suggestions and comments about products, process, and anything else you feel may be important to share.
We accept all credit cards all the time!
