I just received my Harvard Classics 51 vols. Many thanks for a perfect deal !! Good and to the point presale info, a good price, super fast shipping (in 10 working days to Continental Europe, wow must have been Concord). The books were wrapped with loving care and arrived in perfect shape to be the crown in my library. If this is your standard customer care, you set a standard that will go unchallenged for a long time !! I will recommend you to all my book loving friends !! Many thanks again.
I flew to NY from CA a couple of weeks ago, and while walking 59th, happened upon Argosy... Amazing! I had very little wiggle room in my time between meetings, but I made sure I came back the next morning, also. I'm so impressed, and reading about the family history of the store impressed me even more. Thank you for having such a marvelous bastion of knowledge there in the city! I was truly impressed.
