We ordered two copies of Mark Forsyth's Gemel Edition( for Christmas presents) on May 25. The price of the books was the lowest we could find and shipping from UK was free! The books arrived on June 6. A great overall transaction.

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 $35.86. I was super pleased that they stocked it, and even more pleased because the uni bookshop sold it for like double the price.
Delivery was unexpectedly slow - I received it after roughly 3 weeks. It was the most I've ever waited for an international package, so I'm wondering if was an one-off or if Britain just takes forever. Nonetheless, the book was in perfect, undamaged condition and was exactly what I needed! No complaints because it saved me a lot of dosh.
The textbook i purchased from book depository was cheap and came in secure packaging. The shipping was also very quick and arrived in 5 days! Book depository also confirms when items have been dispatched and FAQ questions are conveniently answered at the end of every email.
I did a massive order of about 14 books (one was pre-order so it hasn't arrived yet) but every book came within 3 weeks. An email was also sent for each batch of books sent out so I knew to expect it the following few days.
No hassle delivery from the UK for affordable books! I will always order from this site, it's my favourite.
Also, I love the free bookmarks they include, sometimes they forget but that's okay!
I bought The Meaning of Things: Applying Philosophy to Life for 11.47$
This store has the same products are physical walk in stores but at a fraction of the price. My local book store retails the purchased book for 22$.
Shipping is quick and efficient. They leave your product at the door if you are not at home, which suits my needs. A receipt is attached the product. A tracking number is also provided so there is peace of mind.
Bought: The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins for $11.54
Not significantly cheaper than in stores as Kmart we're advertising the book for $12. I also noticed that the pages were more yellow when they were sourced from the book depository. It is not only this book, but other orders I have made that tend to have a less "bleached" look to the pages. Delivery was fast and efficient. There is also no need for signature, which is a bonus in my eyes as a full time student.
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.
