    I just learned a wonderful hack on how to fix or lessen yellow page edges and it's by sanding it with a very fine sanding paper. It works very well on my second hand books.

    Hello! I love Sense and Sensibility. I like it just as much as Pride and Prejudice, maybe a tad more. Raisens used to be here in the states, but not as second hand. They went out of business. I WISH there were a lot more bookstores here. At least in S.E. Michigan. All the little indie ones went out of business a long time ago. Thank you for mentioning books that I've never heard on other channels. They usually sound so interesting. Also clean romance, I appreciate that. I hope to get Yours From The Tower and The Winter Cottage. My life is SOOO full of stress ( not created by me!) so I look forward to your CALM, COZY atmosphere and YOUR sweet, beautiful personality. Thanks so much Ahya 🤗

    Omg!! A Laura Wood book! I adore that writer and her novels, my favourite book of her’s is Under a Dancing Star, coincidentally also the first book I read of her’s, it’s also a summer romance novel (clean) about a girl named Bea who goes to live with her bohemian uncle in 1920’s Italy for a summer and she finds herself surrounded by expressive and very creative artists of all kinds and also falls in love with one of the artists, Ben, it’s based on the first part of Much Ado About Nothing by Shakespeare

    I have ordered from world of books. It is now one of the least places I will purchase from because I’ve had a few books that are in such bad shape and I only purchase like new or very good condition books and there is no way that these books would be in those two categories. It’s very disappointing because I love to buy used books and I believe they have quite a few books that they sell.

      @@oc2538maybe don’t buy collective editions from them but try normal books and just consider embracing the content is most important aspect and that you made the choice to buy used books for a reason. You’re helping divert huge amounts of methane from the landfill and also fighting environment racism since landfills statistically add put by BIPOC neighborhoods and we do suffer the effects. It’s to the point my doctor point blank told me when I’m able to afford it one day, he thinks I should just move away from my area because he thinks my respiratory condition would be totally different and I’m not in a big city either. But I’m in a city and I’m on the side where the trash and suspicious factories with weird smells and gases go. Not to tmi you, but I think if people can remember we all collectively impact one another, maybe the giving up some luxuries gets a little easier. But please know if it’s just sticky, you can wipe those books down, they’re just older rubberized covers and it’s natural, especially with UV exposure. Some don’t know and throw the whole thing away. Books are methane creators which is twenty times more potent than C02 and we waste 10 million trees yearly on unread ones in part because people don’t like “ugly” covers from small presses or damaged books don’t get a home.

    I have this happen to me buying from thriftbooks (US site I live in Canada). And what I love about thriftbooks is that I take pictures of it and email them that I didn't receive the condition I ordered, and most of the time I get a refund for that book (sometimes it's half, but still a refund). I would recommend trying that, just be polite and respectful.

      I end up having 12 pics of a book lol just to make sure they see from every angle and they can make a better decision. I close out the email with "what are our next step?" I never demand or ask for a refund.
