About True Oak Books
True Oak Books is an independent, online bookstore based in the beautiful Hudson Valley, New York. Each one of our items has been curated by our small but passionate team, with joy and enthusiasm. We carefully inspect every book to describe and grade it accurately, so that you can buy with confidence. We provide condition photos for most of our books, and additional photos are available upon request.
True Oak Books is a proud member of the IOBA (Independent Online Booksellers Association) and adheres to their high ethical and professional standards.
In order to remain competitive with low value books and be able to offer them, we have a tiered shipping system to make low price transactions economically sound. Lower value books will ship in a protective bubble mailer, as 99% of these reach the customer without problems. We go beyond this for higher ticket items and provide box service. If your post office handles books roughly, you can request cardboard/box service for lower value items as well.
