I love old books and I have to say that your shop was my favourite attraction in NYC, and I put it up there along with the MET Opera! I don’t tend to visit NYC very often but I will surely visit the shop next time I go.
Just wanted to thank you folks at Argosy, especially the person that packed my order with such care! It's obvious that you care about books and customer satisfaction. I have ordered a lot of books over my lifetime and have never seen anything packed so meticulously. Much appreciated
