The Book Man (Our Patron Saint) says:
Vita sine libris mors est.
("Life without books is death.")
Welcome to ReadInk (pronounced like "Dead Ink"), now in our 13th year of putting interesting books into the hands of interested people. We offer an eclectic selection of quality books and periodicals in a variety of subject areas, and are dedicated to the first-class treatment of every book we sell and its new owner (hopefully, you). All orders and inquiries receive courteous, personal attention. We grade our books conservatively, package them securely, and get them in the mail to you promptly -- all because we want to add you to our ever-growing list of satisfied customers.
We hope you'll take a minute to peruse the All About ReadInk page (link at bottom), which explains our commitment to book availability, quality service and packaging,
etc. Just like a real bookstore, we want you to feel welcome from the
moment you step in the door, and to go away happy (even if you don't
buy anything).
ReadInk is also a proud member of the Independent Online Booksellers Association, and as such follows its Code of Ethics, which can be seen here:

Now Available: Our Second Catalog
Yours for
the asking. It looks like this:
You can view the still-available items from this catalog by clicking the "Catalog #2: Women!” link, over at
the left -- but that isn't even half the fun. Although the books themselves are listed here, the catalog itself is available only
in printed form. No PDF downloads or e-mailed versions; don't even ask. I dabbled a bit with
that kind of distribution on Catalog #1, but finally decided that that
whole idea just seemed kind of wrong.
Here’s why: despite the proliferation of Kindles and downloadable books
and iPhone novels and all that other e-stuff, I remain a devotee of the printed book – and so I really like the idea of a sales tool that is itself a
printed, hold-it-in-your-hand kind of thing. So the "ReadInk Catalog
Experience," so to speak, will continue to happen only on paper. (At
least as long as they go on making paper.)
So if you would like to have that Experience, just drop
me an e-mail with your address, and I’ll send a catalog out to you,
posthaste.
