8 volumes. Ex Glasgow Public Libraries. Grubby with usual labels and numerous stamps, all the plates are stamped presumably to deter borrowers from removing them in which they lamentably failed. Volume 1 has two plates missing, Volume 4 is in particularly poor condition with some tape and very grubby and stained around the edge of the pages, Volume 5 has a plate missing, Volume 6 has two plates missing and at least one page detached but present, Volume 7 has one plate missing and finally Volume 8 which has had all the plates removed and is in poorer condition than the other volumes. The covers are a bit grubby but otherwise not too bad. As you can see from the description these volumes are in dreadful condition but if you are in want of the information at a reasonable price and are prepared to do a bit of cleaning these are for you. They weigh over 10kg but I have taken this into account for the pricing in the UK and the postage will be as advertised on ABE. Overseas please ask for a quote but I expect the cost would be prohibitive - looking at today's postage it would start at £79 for Europe.…

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to The Book House (PBFA), Northallerton, United Kingdom, +44 01609 258639, without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
