What Our Customers Say

Thanks for a great transaction. This is by far the easiest second hand book transaction I ever had and your prices are great. I would highly recommend your site to other book worms.

I just want to drop a note to say thank you very much for the books. I was pleasantly surprised that their excellent condition, the low prices and the easy, smooth transaction process. Your website is a gem I’m delighted to have discovered! Please keep up the excellent service and the competitive prices. I will be a regular customer from now onwards.

How we describe the condition of our books:

New: Exactly as it says; you can give this book as a present and no-one would know you got it from a used store!
As New: Pretty much new; very few, if any creases on the spine, probably read only once or twice by someone careful of not cracking the spine (we like those people!)
Very Good: Some creases on the spine, perhaps minor bumping on the corners of the book; if hardcover, the dustjacket could show some shelf-wear.
Good: A few creases, perhaps a small tear or two on the dustjacket; spine could be leaning forward.
Fair: Good enough to read and still looks quite okay; not in a wonderful condition, though (yes, a pretty vague description, we know).
Poor but Readable: Not a book you'd want to keep on your shelf for display-purposes but perfect for a good read.

NOTE: Product images can (and probably do) differ from the actual product!

We sell through various avenues. It is very unlikely but could happen that the book you order and check out has been sold already. In such a case you will be notified as soon as possible and refunded.
