Conditions Of Sale:

The Book Barn is located in Wells, Maine from late May to Late October and in Edgewater Florida from early November to mid-May. My wife and I have been in business since 1985, in a brick & mortar store whose physical property we sold in 2007. We continue to offer books, autographs, paper, and music online at various sites.

We consider our business to be a reader's as well as a collector's inventory. We have an approximate inventory of 10,000-15,000 items---including both hard cover & paperback books----in addition to movies, music. autographs, & prints for both the reader and collector.

In Invaluable online auction mode, we have no reserve prices on items, using our "starting bid" in lieu of a sometimes confusing and always irritating reserve price. Bidders will note that lot(s) with very low Staring Bids & lots where the per item cost is $1-$5, should in no way see those Starting Bids or per item cost of $1-$5 as the Book Barn's judgment on the value of the item(s) contained in the lot(s). We have been in the Used/OP book business for 30+ years & have a LOT of inventory, with more piling up weekly. (Sometimes it seems to us that books breed at night, so there are always more of them over time!) These low Starting Bid/low per item lot(s) are meant to lower our inventory by providing bidders the opportunity to buy material at a low prices--we call it the "Eek" price; as in "Eek! That's all in sold for?" Our lack of storage is your opportunity to buy material at a low price.

My wife and I also author articles on investing for income on Seeking Alpha.com, e-books, as well as publishing scarce out-of-print Public Domain titles in e-book format on Amazon Kindle publishing. Our e-books are also available through Draft2Digital.com for Nook, iBookstore, etc. readers. Our e-books are mostly non-fiction in the area of 1) U. S. Civil War, 2) U. S. Indian wars; especially those in Texas & on the Great Plains, and 3) Texas History; both as a Republic and as a state. Our e-book titles can be found by a Google or other search of my name---Harry Polizzi---for any voracious readers that may be interested.
