Bio:
Wenn Sie Deutsches sprechen, kann ich mit Ihnen in Ihrer Muttersprache entsprechen.

I go to the post office every couple of weeks, and I mail books internationally about once a month. My budget isn't unlimited, so I generally only send two or three books out of the country every month... that's why I would appreciate an email first from any foreign moochers. That way, I can tell you if you'll make it into this month's international shipment or if your book will be delayed until the following month.

My books come from all kinds of places, and some have passed through multiple homes before reaching me, so I can't promise they're smoke-free. I also have two cats and a dog, and while the animals aren't usually on my bookshelves, I want to make sure anyone with severe allergies is aware of that in advance, just in case! If there are no condition notes, please expect a gently used book.

Unless a book is particularly fragile, I ship in plain Tyvek envelopes ( http://envelopes.tyvek.com/en/index2.shtml ) and I usually choose book rate to keep things economical, although sometimes first class mail is cheaper for small texts. For international shipments, I will choose the cheapest postage option unless there is very little money difference to send it considerably faster.
