Congratulations on a lovely and well-deserved article in the latest New Yorker. As a modest customer of long-standing, let me add that the Argosy (including all of you) has provided me with countless hours of pleasure and pleasant discovery over the past 30+ years. My bookshelves, my mind and my life have been enriched by you all. Thank you,
Greetings from Ireland... I was in your store on a snowy Thursday last week. I picked up 3 books and you went to a lot of trouble giving me information on having them shipped to Ireland. I purchased the books and they arrived this morning. They were superbly packed... paper, bag and box. They are in perfect condition Despite being in NYC most years its the first time I've been in your wonderful bookstore. It wont be my last visit! Keep up the good work.
