About Charles Berry, Bookseller California, United States
Biblio member since 2004
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
1. SHIPPING CHARGES: I charge the actual cost of mailing books, or you can use my standard rates. Typical alternatives are domestic bookrate (1-3 weeks), Domestic Priority (2-5 days), International Surface (1-3 months), Global Priority (about 1 week). Heavy books incur higher mailing costs. (The $9 fast international shipment is available only to countries that accept the global priority envelope, for books that fit into the envelope.) 2. PAYMENT: Make checks payable to \'Charles Berry.\' Send a postal money order to avoid check-clearing delays. I accept VISA, MASTERCARD, AMERICAN EXPRESS and PAYPAL for purchases within the US, and selectively for international orders. 3. I will hold a book for 10 days. 4. RETURN POLICY: Books may be returned for any reason within 10 days. You pay for shipping both ways, unless the book is not as described. The book must be returned in the same condition as you received it. 5. SALES TAX: California residents please add 7% sales tax. California book dealers please include your resale number. 6. Books are offered subject to prior sale. 7. Prices are net to all. 8. CONDITION: It is my duty to describe a book\'s condition accurately. This is usually done in general terms (poor, fair, good, very good, fine/new). I gladly will provide more detailed information. 9. RECEIPT: Once a book is shipped, I email a \'Sales Receipt and Shipping Confirmation.\' 10. Bounced checks incur an additional $10 charge.
