About Us

A big hello from The Dusty Collections! Welcome to our website. The Dusty Collections is the first digital platform in Seychelles selling secondhand books and bookish trinkets.

Our Founder

Hi, I’m Josie and I am a notorious book hogger.

Why sell secondhand books? Let me tell you, even if no one’s asking.

I’ve been staring at the dusty books wasting away on my bookshelf for quite some time now and wondered what I could do with them.

Last year, during my travels, I stumbled upon a quaint bookstore selling secondhand books and had a lightbulb moment: why not sell my books in Seychelles? Not just mine, but create a platform for others to sell theirs too.

And voilà! The Dusty Collection was born. Why buy a book to read once, when you can pass it on to be enjoyed again, for much less than its original price?

Let’s save paper, save the planet and embrace secondhand reads.

I hope you enjoy my books as much as I did <3
