I carefully check and describe my books. Returns are accepted if contacted within 7 days of receipt. If book not as described, I will refund cost of the book, as well as postage both ways. If returned 'just because....' then buyer pays for shipping. Oversized books will have additional shipping above the standard, listed rates, quoted upon ordering.
Books are in a 'smoke free' environment. However, some are used books which may have come from 'smokey' locations. If there is a 'smokish' aroma to them, I note that in the listing.
