Classics books for sale (mostly commentaries)

I’m offering some books for sale, mainly Greek and Latin commentaries
(including several green-and-gold Cambridge Greek and Latin Classics in
near mint condition).  I sent a similar list a year ago; I’ve added several
books, and reduced the prices on most of those that didn’t sell.  Shipping
is at cost, so cheap within the US but pricey overseas; see the notes at
the bottom.



Please ask if you have questions, and please forward this list to anyone
you think may be interested!

Information on ordering



   - *ORDERING*:  Please e-mail me at [email protected]  to request
   books; I'll reserve them, first come first served, and will e-mail to
   confirm availability and ascertain your postal address.  When I've shipped
   them, I'll e-mail again with shipping costs (ask if you want me to
   ascertain the costs from the post office and notify you before I ship).
   Please let me know how you plan to pay, US check or PayPal (see below).
   - *SHIPPING within the US*:  Will be charged at cost.  I'll ship to US
   addresses by media mail (or UPS if that's cheaper, or if insurance seems
   desirable) unless you request otherwise.
   - *Shipping to other countries*:  Also charged at cost.  I'll ship
   overseas by the least expensive method unless requested, but overseas
   shipping will still be pricey since the post offices in my area can't ship
   by surface post.  Shipping a single book to the UK (when I checked two
   years ago) cost $16.75 for a hardcover; the price quoted for Canada was
   $10.95 for one book.  Caveat emptor.
   - *PAYMENT*:  by US check or PayPal.  Sorry, I can’t accept credit
   cards.  Payment due on receipt of books.  If you wish to pay by PayPal, my
   e-mail address for that is *[email protected]
   <[email protected]>* ; please pay in US dollars.  I'd appreciate
   (but don’t require) your adding about 3% if you pay by PayPal to cover
   their fees.
   - *REFUNDS*:  If any book is not as described, you may return it within
   60 days for a full refund (by US check or PayPal).  If you return anything
   for other reasons (e.g. “I already had it”), I'll refund the price of the
   item but not shipping.   Please contact me before returning items; they
   should be sent to my work address, which I'll supply (NOT my home address).
   - *INQUIRIES AND CONDITION*:  Please e-mail if you have questions or
   want more information, or if you’d like me to send color scans.  I've tried
   to be conservative in my grading of condition, but such grades are
   subjective.  (“Good” to me means “a worn copy; not bad but not Very Good.”
   “Near fine” means “practically As New but not quite.”) I haven’t always
   mentioned pencil markings, foxing, bookstore stickers, etc., so please ask
   if this matters to you.  I’ve tried to indicate all ex-library books.
   Hardcovers are in their original binding unless I say otherwise.
   - *CONTACT INFORMATION*:  Please send orders to [email protected] ,
   queries to that address or [email protected].  Checks can be sent
   to:
