Booktopia - buy online books and DVDs from Australia's leading online bookstore with over 4 million titles. Booktopia offers thousands of Google eBooks, daily discounted books and flat rate shipping of $6.50 per online book order.
This site is a quality bookshop, it is Australian and it provides a wide array of books of different types, such as novels, and textbooks. Their prices are extremely competitive, and surfing online for your favourite book is easier then physically searching book shops for your favourite book. Being australian, the site maintains a certain quality for its books, such that they arrive in a perfect condition.Postage takes around 2-3 days, and so, you can have a completely new book at your doorstep with in a matter of clicks. The sites only cons are that it does not have every single book on the planet, but it does however have many books. Also the site can take alot of time to load, and this is despite my fast internet connection.
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.
Happy with the range of titles. Items were shipped promptly considering it was over the Christmas/New Year Period. Pricing was very competitive in comparison to other online book stores. Would recommend!
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.
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.
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.
