Love old books? This is your auction house.
I've participated in seven of Schilb's auctions over the last year and have been consistently impressed with their professionalism, knowledge and service. Some specifics: 1. They have a huge revolving inventory with new titles in my areas of interest (The American Civil War, Explorers and Exploration, and the Napoleonic Era) every month. 2. They graciously sell without a buyer's premium so you can bid on what you see as the true value of the book, not what you can manage to pay with a 20-30-percent surcharge. 3. They provide detailed information on the books including at least 10 photographs per edition (no other book auction house I'm familiar with does this). 4. They ship quickly and economically. 5. They are a family business that (at least on the surface) seems to love what they do. I'm know I would not have gotten into book collecting without a service-oriented seller like Shilb.

Check on Condition!
Written descriptions are poor. and the poorly lit photos not to be trusted despite the fact that they are plentiful. If you have any questions, you should contact Schilb. I bought a book with condition listed only as "Excellent" but in fact was ex-library with lots of stains from library spine label and rear pocket removals, and other problems that any other bona fide dealer would have properly described as Fair, ex-library, Good to Very Good internally, hinges loose and separating, rear cover heavily creased with poor repair, etc., etc. I will add however that Schilb very graciously, and without any argument, refunded the cost of the book plus my return shipping.

Extremely fast shipping
Of all the auction houses I buy from, Schilb is the fastest at shipping. Usually in just a couple days it’s at my address. I would recommend anyone to buy from them with confidence
