Avoid for international deliveriesI bought a book through Alibris for delivery in Venezuela. The book was expected to arrive in 21-27 days. 45 days later and Alibris has no idea where the book is as they do not track items shipped outside the USA. Now I have to try to get the book and shipping costs refunded.

Books from USA not arrivingHas anyone else from the UK had books fail to arrive from America? Three of my books ordered at end of January from US sellers never turned up and I am just wondering if I happened to be very unlucky or if this is a common problem with Alibris and whether I need to avoid non-UK based sellers?

Is This Book Valuable?
Old multi-volume set of ShakespeareI have a multi-volume set of the collected works of Shakespeare. Can anybody give me direction on determining origin and potential value? Binding appears to be leather and they seem quite old. I can send pictures if that would help.
