Why Choose VJ Books?


VJ Books began as a brainchild of John. Driven by his love of books, he built a company from a small room in his and Virginia's home to become one of the largest and most respected internet booksellers in the world.

The main difference with us is that we love books.

Every book in our inventory is hand inspected and graded. Every jacket is put into an acetate archival cover, and every book leaving our warehouse is bubbled wrapped and sent in a sturdy cardboard box or priority envelope.

We work with nearly 1,000 bestselling authors and do between 50 - 100 signings each and every month. VJ Books continues to stock a deep inventory of our author's earlier works, so you can complete your collection with relative ease.

With an inventory of over 50,000 signed first editions you are sure to find find something you'll love.

Our BOOK STEWARD program is an easy-to-use service that lets you automatically receive signed new releases from your favorite authors, on time, every time, each month.
