I find the catalogue easier to choose from; but a downside is that on my last couple of orders the some of the books have not been available; the notification of the order received/delivery etc. is very good. Overall I am happy to keep on ordeing!

Good range of books. Easy ordering and payment. Prompt delivery. Delivery companies not always the best, leaving parcels un unsuitable places and sometimes just throwing them into the garden

The firm is very efficient, reasonable prices and helpful staff. Delivery arrangements excellent. However, the range of categories seems to have diminished, for example, at one time I seem to remember there was a whole extensive category of medical books.

A very good, varied selection. I'm mainly fiction now though, after years of history etc. when I was younger.

Excellent service as usual from all those at Postscript. However Evri has never been a reliable delivery carrier in this area leaving parcels balanced on th front gate, father than the porch.

Good morning Geoffrey, Thank you for your feedback regarding your ordering experience with us, I'm pleased to hear that you've been happy with the service that we offer and that you've received your order. However I'm sorry to hear about the not so happy experiences with your deliveries. We always make sure that this sort of feedback is escalated with the courier's complaints team so that it can be reviewed internally, so thank you for bringing this to our attention. I will ensure that this is fed back to them for investigation so that it can be actioned accordingly. Kind regards, Postscript Customer Services

The range of books which you are able to access and offer has diminished significantly since we joined Postscript - and the average postscript price seems to have increased more than proportionately. Sadly nowadays when we open the monthly catalogue - which we still do each month on receipt - we no longer haave an expextation that we shall be placing the next order. It used to be that a mixed Christmas hamper of books could be put together to get you to send to family, a great boon as we got older, and more out of touch with what appealed to the young. Sad;y no longer possible, and more a question of choice of titles than of overall cost.

Good afternoon, I am sorry that you feel that our range of titles aren't quite what they used to be, and that the books are getting more expensive. I can see from your order that you saved just over £80 on your order compared to publisher prices. As a business we are committed to selling books at a considerable discount which we believe represent good value for money. Of course if you are ever unhappy with the items you have purchased they can be returned for a full refund. We also welcome feedback and suggestions from our customers if there is a particular genre or author that they'd like to see more of, so if you have anything in mind please feel free to get in touch and let us know. Kind regards, Postscript Customer Services

I have always enjoy looking at your choice of books available and then choosing several books. However having sent in my choose of books at about Christmas I did not receive the books. I wonder if the problem was with the Post Office or your office. I recently ordered some more books , which I have just received. I am always worried about the state of the books as up till now the parcel is thrown over my wall..I always hope that it will not rain !

Good afternoon Mr. Shaw, Thank you for taking the time to leave a review for us. Looking at your account, I'm only able to locate an order placed in January of last year and another in January of this year. Unfortunately, it's not unheard of for an order to be lost in the post on it's way to us. I'm pleased to hear that your recent order has reached you safely and I can see from the photograph provided by the courier that the parcel was delivered directly to your door. If you'd like us to add a delivery instruction to your account to note a safe place if you're out at the time of delivery, please get in touch with us or note it on your order form. Kind regards, Postscript Customer Services

Postscript provide a good selction books which I think cater for a wide variety of tastes.I retired from teaching in 1997 but I started buying from Postscript several years before that.At the age of 77 and with health issues buying from Postscript is convenient.Books ordered arrive in a few days and they are what is advertised.All the books I have received have been in good condtion.

Very good ordering service and choice of books, my only concern is the condition of the boxes when they arrive at my home, there is little care taken with the books as the boxes must be thrown about by these couriers and it has only been your careful packaging that has kept the books from being damaged. It is a pity that you cannot find a more careful courier firm.

My late Mother introduced me to 'Postscript' many years ago. A great source for e.g. exhibition catalogues that were too expensive at the time and other books, especially architectural. Also, an encouragement to read biographies that would normally be overlooked or other subjects. Calendars have proved excellent presents. Administration is good: books arrive quickly, well packed. If one is unavailable, there is a 'credit note' that works the next time an order is placed. While an order is not placed every time their list arrives, this has not deterred them from consistently sending one; it's always a priority to read. 'Postscript' is a welcome resource.
