He hecho 3 compras a ellos y todas han sido satisfactorias. Las entregas han sido antes de lo esperado y el precio me ha parecido razonable. Seguro seguiré comprandole a ellos!

Books just as described, super fast shipping so arrive quickly. Saved $$ on college books over a decade ago. I still order from them books for leisure.

I’ve been buying from AbeBooks for about five years. In addition to buying for myself, I purchase books for the grandkids. The youngest is an avid reader and just discovered the Story Treehouse series. The books arrived earlier than scheduled and are in good condition. The price was very reasonable and I have an incredibly happy 8 year old!

An excellent online bookstore, with a huge selection of books, often at excellent prices and an exceptional customer service to go with it.

I recently bought a long-wanted book online from the Bedlam Book Cafe in Worcester in the US. In less than a fortnight it arrived here at our home in Gloucester in the UK when the 'postie' put it during his normal morning visit through our letterbox. An absolutely perfect transaction. I can thoroughly recommend this company.

I accidently put down the incorrect address, it didn't come up in their system so they called me and fixed the problem. I've also always gotten my packages on time.

I read some reviews ‘after’ I purchased four books and assumed I’d never see the books . I got them eight days later and they’re in great condition.

Babes is a second hand online book company. They have a great range of books at fabulously low prices - often for only pence plus postage (postage is also very reasonable). On the odd occasion they haven't been able to fulfil the order, or it has gone astray, they sort things out as quickly as possible.

I have purchased used books from them on several occasions. The quality of the books, prices and service is excellent. My last purchase didn't arrive within the time they specified and as soon as I notified them they refunded my payment immediately. An excellent company.
