Schilb Antiquarian Rare Books is amazing, very professional and courteous.
I would participate in any Schilb Antiquarian auction; I am also a client of their store. Honest, fast, super responsive, and friendly.

These people care about books and about their customers
I greatly enjoy the auctions at Schilb books. They do not add a fee onto the price of the books-what you bid is what you pay. Most auction houses charge anywhere from 10 to 30 percent of the price of the book as their markup. Schilb also ships their books for free. I have always found their descriptions to be accurate, their shipments to be well packed and the shipping times to be very fast. I have always been satisfied with my auction results with this company.

Always a hi-quality, fascinating curated selection of books.
Very nice book. I appreciate that the auctions are always of a modest size-about 100 lots. I also appreciate the shipping is included in the price.

This is our third purchase from Schilb, and every single time, everything is perfect-in fact, it's beyond our experience with any other auction house. Every book is accurately represented and gorgeous. Shipping is immediate, and they carefully wrap and package each book like fine porcelain. That and all the perks they offer have them at the top of our go-to auctions.

Answers every question and concern. Shipping is fabulous! Books are fabulous & very well detailed.
Truly one of the best auction houses I have dealt with. Very few come even close to Schilb's customer service or the fantastic selection. The quality of the books are second to none and come complete with great photos and very detailed descriptions.
