Halsbury's Statutes buyer
The companion set to Halsbury's Laws — just as ready for the shelf to go.
We buy complete and partial sets, 4th edition or earlier, with or without the Cumulative Supplement and consolidated volumes.
About the set
Halsbury's Statutes of England and Wales provides the up-to-date text of every Public General Act and Church of England Measure currently in force, arranged by subject in the same alphabetical scheme as its companion, Halsbury's Laws. First published in 1929, the current fourth edition runs to around fifty volumes, published between 1985 and 1992 and kept current since with an annual supplement and periodic loose-leaf updates.
Around 50 volumes, published 1985–1992. The edition most actively-used sets will be.
A full run plus a current Cumulative Supplement is worth most, though partial sets are genuinely still worth valuing.
The Consolidated Index, Citator, and Table of Statutory Instruments add value when included, but aren't essential.
While you're here
Halsbury's Statutes rarely sits alone. If you're clearing a library, we're also interested in the titles that usually sit alongside it.
