Hello!
A reminder that we shall be at Claymore.
Until Wednesday 30th: Postage on all 2nd-hand books is £1.50 GBP each for the U.K.; £2.50 GBP each for the Rest of the World. No maximum. We have also reduced all 2nd-hand by 10%, so please check the site. This offer only applies to books coded 17500 or lower.
Over 800 books now under £4.00 GBP.
Note: During July, we appear to have been the victims of an overactive internal spam filter at our web hosts. Everything is fixed now.
This resulted in the odd order being sent an acknowledgment, but us not being sent the order. It was infrequent enough for us not to notice any fall off in the dozens of web orders we get a day, but obviously a nuisance.
If anyone is still a waiting for a complete order from us, and who has not heard from us at all, please email us a copy of the acknowledgment.
Thanks!
