On the 29/04/2013 i ordered a copy of 'The Call of the Wild' and on the 01/05/2013 i received notification that my order had been shipped.Today (07/05/2013) my order arrived as described.
Boy is it difficult to find a store online that stocks the books I required for my Cert3 Children's Services! It costs sooo much at the physical shops, even a second-hand book on gumtree was marginally cheaper than buying it new. So I decided to give Booktopia a try. It stocks all books Australian. The price the books I required was the cheapest I could find (price + shipping). I compared it with Mighty Ape whose price was very close. Within 2 days of placing my order I received shipping notification and received my order the following week. Well wrapped should it come across wet-weather too.
I ordered two textbooks from booktopia. Both book were discounted because there was a sale on. Postage is not too bad but other book stores do offer free postage. Package arrived within a couple of days so it was pretty good.
This website has by far the cheapest offer on books around. If you sign up to their emails they are always offering free shipping or if you live in Sydney you can pick up your books from their warehouse. The have a great selection and I was able to find books that I haven't been able to find in other bookstores/sites. If you cancel your order however you don't get your money back only a credit. But for a book lover like me that wasn't a problem.
Ordered a dvd from booktopia whilst they had a flash sale which was great but as another bonus they had a free shipping offer which meant i saved $6.50. In the end the shipping was great ordered on friday recieved on monday.
I have used Booktopia frequently. My last purchases were "The Great Destruction" and "One Up On Wall Street." Fast shipping, Australian ownership, and a wide selection of books makes Booktopia my preferred Online Book Shop.
One thing I like about Booktopia is that they are clear about when your book will be delivered. I received my books within 2 days of ordering. However, from past experience, when a book is not in stock, booktopia lets you know when to expect it.
