About The Hard-to-Find Book Store Texas, United States

Biblio member since 2005
Seller rating: This seller has earned a 3 of 5 Stars rating from Biblio customers.

We opened our shop in August 1992 in an out-of-the-way, two-block street, hence the name. Shortly afterward we started getting books that were hard to find, so the name fits there, too. We recently closed the shop and are focusing on our online book business, continuing to provide the same customer care. Our specialties include Engineering and Technical, Christian and other religions, Foreign Language, Military History, and music. We also have classics, biographies, history, politics, and science, sports, law, etc. Please call for any information needed. We are in the Central time zone.

Terms of Sale:

Normally, we ship books within 24 hours. Books may be returned after notification within 10 days of receipt. Shipping for heavier books (over 2 pounds) may be extra.
