FEEDBACK
from Elizabeth
in Australia
What a lovely surprise when I arrived home very late last night - my
books were waiting for me at the front door.
This is the quickest I have ever received anything bought on the internet.
I wish I had discovered you sooner! On the 1st November I ordered some
books from Borders and I am still waiting for them.
I was thrilled with how carefully packaged they were and the hardback
- what a beautiful book! My granddaughter will love them.
I will certainly recommend you to all my book loving family and friends!
Once again thankyou for a great service.
from Ed in the US
"The book FOR THE TERM OF HIS NATURAL LIFE by Marcus Clark arrived
today.
I only wish I could find a way to leave FEEDBACK about this transaction
so all could see it. Since I can not do that here is to you girl.
GREAT PRODUCT, PRICE, DELIVERY, COMMUNICATION, SELLER. TO ANY READER
THIS IS THE PLACE TO GET YOUR SECOND HAND BOOKS THAT ARE HARD TO FIND.
THIS LADY WILL GO OUT OF HER WAY IN ORDER TO HELP YOU WITH YOUR BOOK
NEEDS.
MY HIGHEST RECOMMENDATIONS FOR HER AND HER STORE.
THANK YOU FROM THE CENTRAL USA FOR THE GREAT SERVICE YOU HAVE GIVEN
THIS HARD TO FIND BOOK SEARCHER. "
from
Jill in the UK:
Thank you! It has arrived today all safe and sound - what excitement. It
is amazing to receive a childhood favourite from across the world. I have
kept the airmail sticker with the Southern Cross and popped it inside to
remind me of the wonder that books can bring. Warmest regards, Jill
from
Ingrid in NSW:
"Thank-you so very much for the delightful books which have arrived safely.
I do appreciate the special efforts made in packaging them properly; they arrived
in excellent condition.
I am really thrilled with the whole collection; they are a gorgeous set indeed.
Thank-you very much for doing business with me; I hope to purchase from you
again soon. Your catalogue on your web-site is super. I have not yet actually
completely unpacked & unwrapped each separate book, this being a very busy
week for me; I have saved that pleasure for the coming weekend. It is something
I really love doing. The condition of the few books I have completely unwrapped
is really super; they are certainly the best editions I have ever seen of the
Billabong
Books.
I am so pleased to have the whole set at last; they will be much enjoyed
by all generations of my family, even if actually intended for my young daughter.
I can assure you they will now have a permanent home with our family.
I know they will be a great pleasure to Emily on her birthday."
from
Albert in the UK:
"
That has to be the most amazing delivery
speed that I've encountered, thank you so much. It took a week from
ordering the
book to its arrival yesterday. A week to get round the world is pretty
fantastic, specially when you consider that I bought some books in
England over two weeks ago and
they still haven't arrived.
The book itself is also
one of the best I've seen. If I didn't know it was 45 years old I'd think
it was a couple of years at most, and so clean - wow.
Apologies for raving,
but your service and the quality of the book is second to none. "
from
Julie in Qld
"What a delight to receive my books today.
They were in excellent condition and expertly packaged. "
