I accidentally stumbled across this website whilst searching for Peppa Pig and Octonauts books. I purchased 9 books for around half the price as you would find in ABC stores and shipping was free! Supplier was in the UK too. Items were dispatched in groups which was a bit strange...received 2 to 3 items separately over 1 week. packaged ok - in cardboard. lucky books were not damaged. could have been packaged better though. but all in all, my items arrived safely in perfect condition. This website sells all types of things. Good idea to sign up for emails. will buy from again if any good deals pop up.
I managed to purchase my university textbook (Employment Relations) for much cheaper (saved roughly $20) than any other retail book shops or online shops. The website is user-friendly and easy to use and they offer free standard shipping which takes roughly 2 weeks.
I bought 'Killing Floor' from the Jack Reacher series from Fishpond! Fishpond have a great range of books for kids as well as adults and all prices are cheaper than what you would find at a local bookstore. Shipping is FREE which is great, however, shipping can take some time. The book took about 3 weeks to arrive at my house.
I bought some personal items and a wooden spice rack from Fishpond.com.
These shipped from the UK, and the postage was super slow to initiate - I kept checking the order and it would say that they were 'on their way to our warehouse': not even shipped yet!
But almost a month later, my order arrived and the spice rack is nicer than anything we looked at in stores or on ebay.
So, if you're not in a hurry, I definitely recommend Fishpond. Some things are easy to wait for and this order was worth it!
I discovered Fishpond when a sports powder I normally buy was no longer available locally. I was pleased to see they offer Free Shipping but noticed the prices a little higher and it ships from a US supplier. The website ordering process was easy but I had to sign up as a member. I was regularly updated via email as to the status of order and I received the item 12 business days after ordering. I would recommend for hard to source items but I wouldn't recommend if you need something quickly.
I ordered "Art of the Start" from Fishpond. The prices on the site appear as though they've been discounted heavily, but only after I ordered it, I noticed Amazon was actually selling it cheaper. So was Book Depository. Shipping took about 2 weeks.
Fishpond have an automatic partial refund system where they refund you the difference in prices if Amazon is cheaper, but this only returned a few cents back to me.
Still cheaper than bricks & mortar shops, but I probably wouldn't buy from Fishpond anymore.
