FAQs: |
|||||||||||||||||
Shipping: Rowan Morrison ships throughout the nation via USPS Priority Mail with Delivery Confirmation. We find that this is fastest and most reliable method for the value. Our shipping charges are dependent on the total cost of your order (basically a flat rate box or envelope, delivery confirmation, and a little extra for the fees):
We can ship through other means or hold your items for an in-store
pick up. Please contact us for alternative shipping arrangements before
placing your order. If your order costs a lot more than our regular
rates, we will invoice you for additional costs before shipping any
items.
If shipping costs exceed this standard, we will invoice you for additional funds before shipping. We can also ship via International Priority Mail or other courier with an additional cost. Please inquire via email before placing your order. Any orders without proper shipping coverage that aren't promptly amended
will be refunded. |

Returns:
There are no returns. All sales are final. If you recieve damaged or the
wrong products, contact us to obtain a return authorization number and
we will gladly refund your money or send you the proper product. Rowan
Morrison is not responsible for any damages incurred during shipping.
Open your packages carefully, folks.

Where
did this item go? We update our online inventory with
new items as soon as we get them, and we remove old inventory immediately
when an item sells out. If you saw an item here previously and it is no
longer listed, it is on reorder or possibly sold out forever. Many of
the items we carry are limited so inventory can change quickly. Like we
say, "get it now or regret it for the rest of your life". Feel
free to email us with any questions about items you have seen.

Will
you sell my book? Quite possibly. We are always on the
look out for new and limited art books, zines, papergoods, and prints.
If it is at all possible, please contact us, send us a sample copy, and
follow up in a few weeks with an email. If you want your sample returned,
please include a SASE or money for return postage. We can't carry every
book we see, but it will help your chances if you publication is self-distributed,
image-based (no poetry or novels), and you are willing to do consignment
terms.

Is
there any fine art for sale? Rowan Morrison curates bi-monthly
solo exhibitions of fine artists in our gallery space in Oakland. While
we often post images of the art the photo album section of this website,
we don't host an "online art gallery". If you have seen an image
of a work of art on this website (or in person) that you simple must have,
please email us an we will put you in touch with the artist when possible.

Do
you have any other products available? We sure do. Our
gallery and bookstore has a much larger selection of items than what you'll
find online. Many of our books sell so fast or are available in such limited
quanitities that we don't list them online. Some consignment items are
only available in the store as well. We also have a small selection of
used art books and graphic novels available in the store at extremely
low prices that aren't available online. If you are in the Bay Area, you
should stop by and check it out. Here
is an inventory list.

Where can I learn more about art books? I'm glad you asked. Rowan Morrison publishes an Art Books Blog where we discuss many of the books we carry, as well as lots of items from our personal library. The blog has lots of images, in depth reviews, historical backgrounds on artists, interviews, self-publishing information, and reader comments. The blog sometimes will feature exclusive book discounts not available in the store or on in our online shop. Check it out.
