Sell To Us

Contact us using the form at the bottom of this page or through the details in the Contact page if you're interested in selling your items to or with us. We are interested in books of comparable quality to what you can see on our website. Please ensure your contact details are correct in the submitted form below, or contact us directly via our email. If you don't hear back from us within 48 hours, please assume we are not interested in purchasing your book(s). We will always respond via email. In your message, please include the author's name (if applicable), the date of the book, the binding (leather, vellum, cloth, etc), and any major defects. If we are interested we will contact for more details. Please note, in order to proceed with a purchase we will require photographs of the item, as well as seeing a valid form of ID.

We are most interested in purchasing early printed material (prior to 1700), but we regularly purchase a wide range of items as we are a general dealer.

We Buy Books

We buy individual rare books, manuscripts and fine artworks all the way up to entire libraries or collections. We offer several different ways that you can sell your rare books, manuscripts, and fine art with us.

Consignment by Auction

We can professionally photograph and advertise your books on consignment and auction them through our eBay page. Our eBay receives millions of impressions every month and we have sold £100,000s through eBay auctions. This almost always achieves much better results than a standard auction house as we will individually advertise every book in your collection, often selling for up to 5-10x the price you might achieve at auction for a large collection.

Standard Consignment

We will suggest an asking price which you can approve if you're happy with. This method takes longer to realise a sale but is less risky and better suited to higher value or more niche consignments. This is the only method in which we currently facilitate the sale of fine art.
