The Hamilton Case by Michelle De Kretser (2004, HCDJ) FIrst American Edition. Dust Jacket edges are taped at top and bottom so it cant fall off book. Otherwise, like new, no writing throughout. Pages are smooth and clean. Estate sale purchase. I get most of my items at estate auctions, Storage Units, antique stores, Vintage shops, etc. and sell them in an "as found" condition. This is done in the belief that most buyers prefer to receive them as original as possible. Because the items I sell can come from anywhere, I can't guarantee they all come from smoke free environments. I try to give as close to a 100% accurate description as possible. I try to note all the flaws but I may miss something once in awhile, I am human. If I miss something just let me know. If there is a problem I will try to work with you to achieve the best solution for both of us. But please feel free to e-mail with any questions that you may have before you bid on this item. Thank you. I also offer combined shipping. Please Note: Please e-mail me with your address and Country so I can calculate shipping costs for you. Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost. These charges are the buyer's responsibility. Please check with your country's customs office to determine what these additional costs will be prior to bidding or buying. Customs fees are normally charged by the shipping company or collected when you pick the item up. These fees are not additional shipping charges.
