Sell Criminal Appeal Reports
Criminal Appeal Reports
Published since 1908 — one of the longest-running series in English law.
We buy the Criminal Appeal Reports, complete or partial runs, any period since the series began. The Sentencing companion series is bought on the same terms.
What affects value
The same three things, whichever period your run covers.
Continuity of run
An unbroken sequence of years is worth more than the same number of scattered volumes — a criminal case citation is period-specific, and a gap is a gap in exactly the years a reader might need.
Which series
The main series and the Sentencing companion series are both genuinely useful holdings. Tell us which you have, or send a photo — we'll work out the rest.
Condition
Ordinary wear from decades of active use is expected and priced in. Water damage and mould are what genuinely affect the figure.
Clearing a criminal chambers or a Crown Court set's library? Criminal Appeal Reports often sits alongside Archbold and the Criminal Law Review — we'll value the whole collection together.
