People who sold to us
Sold a large collection (600+ volumes) of manga to them. They arranged collection of the items as I am in Scotland, and were super helpful throughout the process. What would have taken months to sell individually I got a fair price for without any of the hassle.
Google review
Contacted Daniel at Mrs Lofthouse Emporium as I had a collection of books I wanted to sell. The whole experience was very easy to complete and navigate. Communication, pick up, delivery, service and interaction throughout was a pleasure. Highly recommend these folks.

Questions

Do you buy single volumes or only full sets?

Both, but runs and box sets are what we want most. A list with volume numbers helps us quote quickly.

How do I sell my books to you?

Send us photos or a list using the form on this page, or email books@mrslofthouse.co.uk. We reply with a quote. If you're happy, box the books up and we can send a courier label or arrange collection for larger collections. Once they arrive and we've checked them, we pay you.

How do you pay?

By bank transfer once the books have arrived and been checked, or as store credit to spend in the shop, which is worth more.

Can I bring books into the shop?

Yes. Bring them to 4 Queen Street, Scarborough, during opening hours. For more than about 40 books, or if you're travelling a long way, send photos or a list first so we can tell you whether we can use them.

What if my books have faults?

Tell us about every one: tears, rips, writing inside, water damage, stains or missing pages. A photo or a clear description of each fault is all we need, and one photo of the pile is plenty for the rest. Faults we weren't told about mean a lower offer, or we may turn the books down (our Book Purchasing Terms & Conditions, linked from the form).

Do you buy every book?

No. We buy on what will sell, not on how good the book is. As a guide, books that sell for around £3–4 on eBay with free postage are usually too low for us. We'd rather say no than waste your time.
