Sobre Independent Books
Independent Books deals in used, antiquarian, and rare collectible volumes. Our books are in great condition -- we provide value to you by offering the book in the best condition for the best price, and we frequently have one-of-a-kind collectibles in extraordinary shape. A tremendous resource for the discriminating collector/connoisseur. Service and client satisfaction are our hallmarks. We are glad to conduct research or locate a difficult-to-find title. Our book rating standards are as follows; nearly all of our stock is VG or better: As New (AN)-just as states, clean, bright, tight, no defects. Fine-AN, but not as bright, minor marks or other minor defects. Very Good (VG)-small to modest tears, chips, marks, cocked etc. Good (G)-not so much, with larger tears or chips, possibly soiled, cocked, etc. Fair-ugly, with pages or large areas of DJ missing or other major defects. Poor(P)-truly ugly, disbound or requiring other major rehabilitation. We stabilize most minor defects with archival quality materials, and with few exceptions, these stabilizations are reversible
