Ordered a novel that took 1week plus to arrive. Pricing was ok, hey free shipping, can't beat that. Book came in a tightly secured envelope in good condition. Store service was ok, didn't had any interactions with them
I absolutely love living in Australia, but I hate paying through the nose for books.
Now there's no need to - The Book Depository (.com and it's .co.uk site) offer an affordable alternative.
The range of books they offer is excellent. Shipping is free (on everything) and always efficient.
In this particular order I found a recipe book I liked in a local book store (Supercharged Food by Lee Holmes) - it was selling for $35. When I got home I found it at The Book Depository for just over $18 including delivery.
The book was shipped within 2 days of my order and it arrived (from the UK) in under a week. You've got to be happy with that.
It was such good value and such a good experience I told my friends about the book through the site too.
Keep an eye out for their 24 hour sales - you can pick up some great bargains.
The price of books in Australia is absolutely shocking. The Book Depository is simply the best place for Australians to buy books online. Their range is expansive and the prices are far lower than our local retailers. With free shipping from the UK, the little bit of extra shipping time is a small price to pay for such savings.
I recently purchased a large paperback nutrition book and received it within 10 days. Previously I bought the Hunger Games Trilogy, read it, and then resold it on Ebay for more than I paid for it on this site!
So long as you aren't in a rush, I highly recommend The Book Depository.
This was my first time ordering from book depository but as it is an international and well known site I felt like I could trust it. The prices are generally cheaper than other book sites and the book I ordered "Streams of Living Water" by Richard Foster was only $15.39, and shipping was free. The item arrived after 5 business days.
I am a frequent shopper with The Book Depository and I can always be assured of their good low price and additional 'no' shipping charges. I have noticed that at times this does make the actual book prices a couple dollars more than in other online stores but when the shipping is added to the total, The Book Depository always comes out on top. If there is any problem at all, it would be the shipping time, which ranges around two weeks or more.
This was my first time purchasing from book depository, I decided to choose them over other retailers as they were the cheapest and also had free delivery.
The textbook I purchased was approximately $20-30 cheaper than any other store in Australia or online.
They dispatched the book after three days and I received it five working days later.
It came in great condition and packaged in cardboard.
I wish I had found this site sooner, I will definitely shop here again.
Great place to buy cheap books, good quality books.
I have used Book Depositry for many, many years.
Although unfortunately the postage is taking a little longer than it used to it is still a fantastic place to buy good quality books at a much cheaper price than Australian stores. Would highly recommend.
