Very easy to use website and clear procedures a real winner
Easy to find books and pay. You have to search to find out the potential delivery dates...
I did not get an email to tell me one of the books would not be sent and would get refunded, so i was still waiting
Easy to use website. Easy to find what I was looking for and then place order.
You had the book i need at a very good price and it was easy for me to make mob purchase.
Great selection of books, working with independent booksellers.
Invariably finds the books I want at a fair price.
Great in optimal condition and great prices. No reasons for me to shop on Amazon.
Not so easy to understand the final shipping cost when choosing multiple books.
Super easy checkout and nice that I got to check my address and bank details more than once
After I had entered my card details I was instructed to enter the type of card AGAIN and re-enter most of my card details.
Books are well organised, makes choosing the one you want easy.
All seems straightforward, although I do entertain a slight concern about charging card before shipping.
In order to improve your website, it would help if you made some of the features easier to get at. I find myself having to go to great lengths to check certain things because the design is obsessed with getting me to check out before I want to.
