Good but wondered why I had to type in card details twice and wondered if I would pay twice
It is a bit annoying that the shipping is not shown when I look into my basket.
Easy and intuitive I got through my order swiftly whilst feeling tired and stressed thank you!
Always brilliant and rapidly becoming my favourite place for books.
Ok, but why list 4 books when you are only selling two?
I like to know the shipping cost for a book early in the order-shipping-payment sequence. T.
