MelbourneGlobal would shop at Book Depository again.
Book Deposity .co.uk - Great for buying books
Huge variety of books. Free shipping to Australia. Prices are reasonable. Ordered 3 books. Took 3 weeks to arrive. Arrived in good condition. Overall they are pretty good if you don't mind waiting.
I ordered a book "The Shore of Pearls" from Book Depository on the 2nd of January. The book arrived a short 10 day wait later, it was packaged nicely in a cardboard envelope with only a very small crease in the top right hand corner. Book Depository offers free worldwide shipping which swayed me to purchase from them as the prices are comparable with other online retailers (and definitely better than a brick and mortar store) without exorbitant shipping fees. Although it must be checked when buying the book that you are buying the exact version you want as book depository does have a very large range including several different versions of the same book and even some books in different languages. I did not have too much trouble with it however.
I made a large purchase from the book depository of over 20 books. I got carried away with continual looking and due to the price I kept buying books. I could not find a better price or range on the net but the actual store can sometimes be hard to navigate. I purchased a large order but for some reason they came in individual parcels spread over about two weeks from the initial purchase. I found this odd and they did not provide any update of when I may receive other parcels. Overall the experience was good and I feel like I could trust the store.
I have been a loyal customer of Book Depository for around 2-3 years now. I have ordered baby books, school textbooks and novels without a problem. Their delivery is very prompt and reliable, and I have received every product I have ever ordered in great condition. Their prices are also great, and would be considerably cheaper than buying from a bookstore. They also have an excellent return policy. Overall, I highly recommend this site!
The Book Depository - Cheap Books with Free Shipping
The book depository is a UK based e-store dealing in a massive range of books and ebooks. I have used this website to buy university textbooks, novels as well as gifts for other people.
The website is easy to use and supports an account-based wishlist. One downfall is that there is no 'remember me' option for easily signing in.
The range of books is immense! Classics to cookbooks to textbooks and more - all of this comes with free worldwide shipping. Shipping can be lengthy - to Australia you can expect three to four weeks of waiting time.
Despite the lengthy delivery time, the prices will probably beat your local bookstore on most titles - especially textbooks.
Returns are possible for books damaged during shipping. The help service is quick and polite.
The Book Depository is easily the leading online bookstore out there. Check it out!
