About us

𝕯𝖊𝖆𝖗 𝖗𝖊𝖆𝖉𝖊𝖗,
My name is Cassiodorus and I live in a monastery called the Vivarium. It’s about 1200 square feet, has 2 broken windows, and we only recently got the plumbing fixed. I am hoping that if I pretend my house is a monastery with a fancy name then one day it actually will be. The library is pretty good at least so take a look around.

The Vivarium has 6 inhabitants including myself, my wife, our two small children (4 and 2), one baby (7 months), and a LARGE dog. As you can imagine everything is really hard right now.

I have a full time job but I dream of homeschooling all 3 kids MYSELF here at the monastery. I launched this ebay as a first step towards that dream.

You may ask, "But Cassiodorus if you wanted to get rich on the internet why did you choose books?"

After a year at it I'm starting to wonder the same thing myself.

All I can say is that I LOVE these books. I hope you will too.

As always, dear reader,

Godspeed,

- 𝕮𝖆𝖘𝖘𝖎❂𝖉𝖔𝖗𝖚𝖘

    Shipping was quick. Packaging was immaculate! Each book was individually wrapped in paper and bubble wrap. Three of the four were like new - as if delivered directly from Easton Press. One had a bit of slippage in the binding - but overall the value was amazing and as described. Would highly recommend this seller!

    Packaged very carefully. Although shipping carton was very damaged and dented when it arrived, the boxed set inside was completely undamaged. Seller's careful packing with much crumpled kraft paper and at least four layers of bubble-wrap protected the set from damage. His attention to protecting the boxed set of books is greatly appreciated.

    Shipping was quick, packaging, well, what can I say other than I have never seen nor received such nice detailed packaging. Amazing. Thank you! Books better than described. And nicely priced. Thank you for everything. One can clearly tell who cares for their books, and for the books they sell.

    Above all else illuminated library made custom made packing I don’t think I can open. Beautiful calligraphy with symbols related to the book showing dedication to the text and the buyer. Shipping came quickly and extremely safe packaging. Item came in as described and at the lowest price I was looking for.
