I am a book collector for over 35 years, with interests in signed first editions, proofs and limited editions. I am now retiring and selling my private collection plus the odd thing I find on my travels. This is not my livelihood so I describe books accurately and disclose all faults - I will not "overlook" issues just to try and get a sale or give blase descriptions that tell you nothing. All my books are sent securely to ensure they do not arrive damaged - I am contemptuous of sellers who use jiffy bags or plastic wrapping and seem to think that this is good enough. I accept PayPal ONLY if we have traded before and we have established trust.
