Most of our stock is privately bought. This is typically in connection with moving, inheritance or a wish for beloved books to find a new home.

We are happy to consider larger collections of books, but prefer to know what kind of books are being sold before we do home visits. The easiest way to do this is to send us pictures of the books' spines by e-mail. We do not need individual pictures of every book.

This way we can quickly judge which books we are interested in considering before making an offer.

It is also worth pointing out that we rely on turning a profit. We are not able to match every price you may see online. The book's condition is also a central consideration.

Appearance is often as important as what is inside.

We also sell books and maps through commission. This depends on the value of the object, and is discussed directly with the seller.
