Terms & Conditions

Overview

These Terms & Conditions govern your use of this website and any purchases made through it. By accessing this site or placing an order, you agree to be bound by these terms. If you do not agree, please do not use the website.

Use of This Website

This website is intended for lawful purposes only. You agree not to use the site in a way that violates applicable laws, interferes with site functionality, or infringes on the rights of others.

We reserve the right to refuse service to anyone for any reason permitted by law.

Products & Descriptions

All items offered for sale are vintage or antique books, many of which are one-of-a-kind.

We make reasonable efforts to accurately describe each item, including condition, edition, and known defects. However:

All items are sold as-is
Minor wear, aging, foxing, or imperfections are inherent to vintage materials
Photographs and descriptions are provided for reference and may not capture every detail

Condition descriptions represent our good-faith assessment, not a guarantee.

Prohibited Use of Materials

Certain books and materials offered for sale on this website may contain historical, political, ideological, or controversial content and are sold solely for lawful purposes, including historical research, academic study, collection, or preservation.

By purchasing any item from this website, you agree that you will not use, reproduce, distribute, or promote any material purchased from this site for illegal purposes, including but not limited to:

Acts of violence or threats of violence
Hate crimes or harassment
Violent extremism, terrorism, or extremist propaganda
Incitement to harm individuals or groups

The sale of historically significant or controversial works does not constitute endorsement of the views expressed within them. All responsibility for the lawful use of purchased materials rests solely with the purchaser.

We reserve the right to refuse service or cancel orders where permitted by law if we reasonably believe a purchase is intended for unlawful or prohibited use.

Pricing & Availability

All prices are listed in U.S. dollars and are subject to change without notice.

Due to the unique nature of vintage items:

Inventory is limited to available stock
Items may sell quickly and availability is not guaranteed until checkout is completed

We reserve the right to cancel or refund orders due to pricing errors, inventory discrepancies, or suspected fraud.

Orders & Payment

By placing an order, you represent that:

You are authorized to use the payment method provided
The information you supply is accurate and complete

Payments are processed securely through third-party payment providers. We do not store full payment card information.

Shipping

Shipping terms, including destinations, processing times, and risk of loss, are outlined in our Shipping Policy, which is incorporated into these Terms & Conditions by reference.

Once an order has been transferred to the shipping carrier, we are not responsible for loss, damage, or delays caused by the carrier or events beyond our control.

Returns & Refunds

Return and refund eligibility, if any, is governed by our Return Policy (or Shipping Policy, if combined). Due to the nature of vintage and antique books, all sales may be final unless otherwise stated.

Items returned without authorization may not be accepted.

Limitation of Liability

To the fullest extent permitted by law:

We are not liable for indirect, incidental, consequential, or punitive damages
Our total liability for any claim related to a purchase shall not exceed the amount paid for the item in question

Use of this website and purchase of items is at your own risk.
