Why am I selling these books?
While I was building my personal technical library, I often acquired duplicates or copies of otherwise interesting books that weren't in my mainstream areas of interest. I'm now segregating out the "best of the best" to distill the library down to an excellent selection of books. I expect to reduce the size of my technical library by over 2,700 books over the next year. A significant number of titles will be of interest to the High Voltage Engineering, Pulsed Power, Physics, and Tesla research communities. Books will be sold on a first come first served basis - and once these are gone, they'll likely be gone for good!
I'm still searching for many technical books
I'm also looking to for certain books to complete my collection. These include a number of titles covering dielectrics, electrical breakdown, gas discharge phenomena, high voltage engineering, pulsed power, ultrastrong magnetic fields, atmospheric electricity, and antique radio (especially spark radio). Some of these titles are shown below in the "Want List" below. If you have books that you are looking to sell in these areas or have any of these titles please contact us. I also am interested in purchasing technical books which are in good condition, since I often trade with other collectors and dealers. Don't throw away your old electrical engineering and physics books - please contact me first.
Ordering Information:
If you see a book you're interested in please email me or call me at (630) 964-2699 as soon as possible. I will temporarily reserve the book for you for a maximum of 10 days pending payment. I'll need to know which book(s) you want, planned payment method, and your mailing address. I'll normally get back to you in 24 hours or less with a quote. Also, please contact me if there are other titles that you're searching for or if have any questions regarding the books offered below.
Shipping and Insurance:
Except for very heavy books (such as the 1500 page Radiotron Handbook), Shipping and Handling to addresses within the continental United States will be $5.00 for the first book and $1.50 for each additional book. S&H for the Radiotron book will be $7.50. I normally ship using US Postal Service Media Mail. Other shipping methods are available upon request, but may add to your cost. Insurance is strongly recommended for books over $25.00. I use delivery confirmation on domestic orders greater than $30.00. I will ship internationally, but insurance may not be available with all shipping options, and S&H costs will be quoted on a country by country basis.
Payment Options:
I cannot directly process credit cards. However, you can still use your credit card to provide payment by using PayPal. If you are not familiar with this service, PayPal provides a safe, secure, and easy payment method. It allows you to safely make Credit Card purchases on the Internet. Click on the PayPal emblem below to sign up or to log in if you already use PayPal. If you live within the USA, I can also accept an International Postal Money Order, or a corporate or personal check. However, if you are paying by check, please allow an additional 5 business days for your check to clear.
NOTE: International customers must use PayPal or an International Money Order drawn against a US bank.
Pay me securely with major credit cards through PayPal!
