The book is in excellent condition, ordering was easy. From date of order to delivery was 11 days, a little longer than expected.

Hi Elaine and thanks for the review. Sorry about the length of time it took for the book to get to you - that was way longer than usual. I did hear that the Royal Mail had some problems over the bank holiday weekend. Apologies.

Books were exactly as described - great price and great condition. Arrived safely. It would be helpful to be given an accurate estimate of shipping and arrival date when you make your purchase.

Many thanks will definitely use again!

I was delighted to find an old childhood favourite "The AA Touring Guide to Scotland" 1975 edition. This book inspired me as a child to explore every Part of scotland I could when I grew up, and eventually did. Fantastic illustrations and stories of old. I can't believe I found this after so many years. Great memories brought back to life.

Many thanks, Ronnie - The Disinformer is for my father who hasn't yet read it. Excellent service, great prices, cheap postage if under £10, otherwise free. Plus, the book is in excellent condition, not just 'good'. Very happy, Jo.
