About Charles Berry, Bookseller
I am jack of all trades, master of none, and this serves me well as a used book dealer. I formerly owned Berry\'s Books of Davis, CA, and closed to live on the Northern Calfornia Coast. Only about 20 of the 32,000 books I have sold since 1/98 have been returned by customers, so you can rely on my descriptions. I don\'t have regular hours to answer the telephone, but an answering machine is usually on, and I welcome emails and faxes(please include your email address with any fax). I really enjoy selling on the internet, and the freedom of not being chained to store hours or a big rent. Also, I like to sell esoteric, obscure, non-fiction books that few have the background to appreciate, but since I reach the whole world, I find those people! I try to ship ASAP, and confirm all shipments by email. I look forward to your order. Thanks. CB
