Trying to sell Asian art books on behalf of my elderly aunt
Reba
have volunteered to help her. I have listed the books below.
I did contact Paragon Books, but was told that they were not currently
buying books. Would someone be kind enough to give me some advice
about the best way to go about this?
Thanks in advance.
