rosesandkittens would shop at Book Depository again.
Love BD!
Gotta love the Internet for Book Depository. Not that I know anyone who shops in physical bookstores anymore, but BD has some of the best prices, especially in our consumer hell of a country. Plus, there's free shipping on all orders!
I picked up the riveting "Mao's China and After" paperback for $35.86. I was super pleased that they stocked it, and even more pleased because the uni bookshop sold it for like double the price.
Delivery was unexpectedly slow - I received it after roughly 3 weeks. It was the most I've ever waited for an international package, so I'm wondering if was an one-off or if Britain just takes forever. Nonetheless, the book was in perfect, undamaged condition and was exactly what I needed! No complaints because it saved me a lot of dosh.
I ordered two books (one was preorder) and both arrived safely from the UK.
The pre-order was released a few days later and arrived 2-3 after the first one. The first one took around 10 business days to arrive - a long wait but it was free shipping from the UK so I'm not complaining.
Once again, books on this site are very affordable and service is great.
This is my third time shopping in book depository, that happens because of their competitive price and also prompt shipping time.
This time, I purchased a book for a graduation gift, the shipping took less than a week (including weekends) from UK! (while it says it will arrive in 7-10 business days)
The book itself is in mint condition and they took extra care in packaging it.
I'm very happy with this purchase and would shop with them again.
I have bought lots of books from Book Depository and have always found their service to be excellent. This purchase, for a book on home renovation, was no different.
The books are always well packed and arrive quickly, given the distance they travel. And shipping is free!! Leaves physical book stores for dead.
I purchase lots of books from Book Depository, in fact I rarely buy them from anywhere else now.
This was an easy purchase, as they all are. Shipping was free and while the packages take a little while to arrive from overseas, the books are very well priced.
I love the Book Depository. Free shipping (at a regular, decent speed) even all the way to antipoedia, excellent range including multiple covers and I just can't find better prices anywhere online. I don't know why I'd shop anywhere else for books.
