Independent Connecticut bookseller specializing in Advance Review Copies and Modern First Editions

NedSparrowBooks: I grade conservatively, personally inspecting all the books and trying to describe their hurts (if any) so you have no surprises. Please email or call if the book is not as you expected. My best feedback is the (more than) one that says, "Better than described!" You can see by my feedback numbers that I�m just getting started as a seller, though I�ve been collecting books for years and giving away book ideas as an English teacher since 1987.

I am selling off the bulk of my personal collection, plus a few odds and ends. I abhor mercantilism and I believe that the current market exists at the expense of the joy of collecting. So you'll never see me price a VG+ below a Good Ex-Lib unless there is a wild discrepancy that would make a book totally unavailable to you, the collecter, the reader, my brother, my double.

TR Booksellers offers rare and out-of-print books as well as collectibles such as signed books and first editions. I also stock used textbooks, which are very competitively priced. I pride myself on fulfilling and dispatching most orders the same business day, and if not possible, the next business day. My staff takes great care in the packaging of your items, and sends books only in padded mailers or boxes (for collectibles and larger items).
