WHAT IS THE WORLD BOOK MARKET?

We are an international group of booksellers that believes quality of books and quality of service far outweigh quantity of listings. You may not find every book that you are looking for here, but if you do find one you can be sure it will be accurately described, well packaged, promptly shipped, fully guaranteed and, if something should be amiss, you will be able to get a real person on the phone immediately.

There may even be a physical shop, what we call an Agent, in your area that will help with any needs. We have pooled our book listings on this website and on each of our private websites.

You can order books from any of us on this site or on any of our private websites (click on the fluttering flags above for your nearest member-site).

FRIENDS OF THE WBM

WeSellUsedBooks is a growing database of book shops and other resources about used books.

BookLovers One of the better UK book listing sites, no monthly fees.

Guy Weller has spent 25 years in the book trade as a poet, author, reviewer, publisher, playwright, theatre producer, Internet publisher, commercial designer and typesetter, and just about anything else you can think of. Having attained the faintly absurd age of 50, at which feat he is mildly abashed, he has now retired to the solace of the gorgeous Blue Mountains, where he lives happily with cats, dogs, wives, geese, fish, birds, snakes, kangaroos and whatever else might turn up. He sells books for a living, but sadly, keeps more than he can bear to sell. Nobody at Mr Pickwick's takes him particularly seriously.
