Milkman - Signed First Edition Thus

We specialise in the sale of fine, rare and interesting books in all fields. Set up in 2022 by Benedict Wilson after 12 years in the rare and secondhand book trade, we aim to find sought after books in the best possible condition and the most interesting copies around. We are based in the seaside town of Folkestone, Kent.

All our books are carefully checked and collated before being accurately catalogued to ensure satisfaction. All our books are provided with high quality protective covers and all orders are carefully and professionally packed.

A note on what we sell: As books cover the entirety of human experience throughout the ages it is possible that some of what we sell will have imagery, views and/or language that is jarring to modern sensibilities. We will always endeavour to be sensitive to this fact in our approach to cataloguing and when presenting our books for sale.

If you are a consumer you can withdraw from the contract in accordance with the following. Consumer means any natural person who is acting for purposes which are outside his trade, business, craft or profession.

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 Benedict Wilson Books, Folkestone, Kent, United Kingdom, +44 07837689904, 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:

1. The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
2. 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.

Standard postage within the UK is free using a tracked or recorded Royal Mail service.

Postage overseas is charged at the rates listed. Expedited shipping can be organised at an additional cost.

All our books are provided with high quality protective covers. All orders are carefully and professionally packed with bubblewrap and a good quality cardboard bookpack or box.
