I continually offer through auction & stores many thousands of fine quality antiquarian items in a broad range of areas. All these many thousands of fine & interesting antiquarian or rare items are depicted, cataloged in detail & easily searched on eBay stores & my private website, and this number is growing weekly as I buy and catalogue material as rapidly as possible.

Please know I always strive to provide accurate descriptions and do my best to mention any notable condition or rarity points. It is always possible my assistants or I could miss something in our descriptions; we often (rapidly) catalogue hundreds of items a month in detail. Because of the human condition combined with time constraints, plus the difficulties associated with accuracy & thoroughness with an endless rapid flow of unique antique items, it is conceivable we might occasionally miss or overlook something.

If you are ever dissatisfied or unhappy with a purchase from me (which I must say is very rare), please contact me immediately! We NEVER purposely try to mislead or misrepresent anything we are selling on-line. Period. So if you ever have any type of concern or confusion about something, please contact us. I personally stand behind what we sell and will do my utmost to accommodate you and make you happy. It is very rare anyone ever leaves us unhappy and I will bend over backwards if required to prevent this scenario.

All I ask in advance is that you understand you are bidding on and purchasing items here which are OLD and are rarely in perfect "as-new" condition. Please always remember this, as I believe it is central to antiquarian collecting and buying. Virtually all old items come with small minor age imperfections, many of which do not warrant discussion as they are not considered defects by general enlightened consensus. And many of the items I handle are actually superior by comparison with most other examples similar to it.

I sell these diverse old items (books, maps, newspapers, pamphlets, broadsides, ephemera, chapbooks, albums, trade-cards, graphic boxes, booklets, etc.) from local New England estates, auctions and attics as we find them. I can't help it and am not personally responsible if items I like, handle & offer (with many pics and a straight-forward description) survive in less than perfect or ideal condition. I try my best to only buy what appeals to me & is worthy of ownership, and in turn offer it along to you as I find it. PLEASE, REMEMBER THIS! Most of what I buy and sell is fresh to the internet market. The overwhelming 99.99% majority of responses I get from my valued customers around the world are positive. I try to only handle items which most collectors would reasonably be happy or even delighted with. I do not handle junk or meaningless old items in poor condition. If it's for sale by me on the internet, this means it is almost certainly worthy of preservation and/ or is in acceptable condition for the vast majority of collectors and dealers around the world. Ultimately, I want you to be happy, as I value my repeat customers and am always striving to create more.

One final thought regarding eBay interactions: please, if you are not going to be pleasant towards us when we interact about eBay items from start to finish, then please simply go away now and do not buy anything from me. No mean or aggressive people are allowed here at this eBay location. Any delay in replying to your email only means we are away or did not get it. We often do not respond to weekend emails, but always will respond to you within 72 hours. Any longer, just phone us at USA EST 603-343-5298. Also, I believe life is short and I personally prefer and try hard to spend my weekends mostly relaxing with my family in the country, not thinking about eBay business & emails all the time. It can often wait until Monday, so lets all try to relax a bit on the weekends with business.

Thanks for looking and I hope our paths will cross soon! And please, no insulting low offers from our eBay listings. To paraphrase a wise old central New Hampshire auctioneer who died this past year, I buy what I like and any unsold items are just money in the bank...
