Store Description

Established in 2004 and originally based at Victoria Mill in Manchester, MintFirsts is now operated from near Athens International Airport. Our bookroom is open by appointment throughout the year. As our name implies, we aspire to offer truly fine copies of collectible editions. Our focus is on 19th and 20th century literature. Beyond this, we venture into anything that is out of the ordinary; be it artistic or scientific, highbrow or popular, mainstream or unorthodox. Most of our books are in English, but we also carry select titles in other European languages.

Shipping Terms

Orders are usually processed within 2 business days. We always ship via recorded delivery (signed-for). Books are bubble-wrapped and placed in a cardboard box or a cushioned envelope to ensure they reach you in the same condition they leave us. If your order exceeds 2kg (4.4lbs) or includes multiple or oversized items, we may contact you regarding a shipping surcharge. This is uncommon, however, as few of our hardbacks weigh more than a 1kg, and even for multiple items the quoted shipping charge is often final.
