My sister recommended World of Books, I'm glad she did! It's excellent, recycling, less land fill, environmentally friendly. The condition of the book is displayed and brief description of story line. Super fast delivery. Well done!

Low priced mostly used books, in very good condition, free delivery, good communication - cheaper than the huge online retailer we all tend to use for everything.

Really bad customer service policy. You get no information about delivery times when you order. Only after payment you discover that it can take up to a month to get your book. Despite you try to cancel the order straight away, they refuse. They don't answer e-mails in several days and you are left with nothing. Never order anything you need the next month.

Bought a second-hand book described as 'very good condition'. The pages were brown with age and brittle, the cover double over at the corners. In all, in near-scrap condition! 'World of books' ask me for photos; if they can't accept my word then future dealings are not for me. They should be more interested in how the description came to be so inaccurate.

I'm surprised that there are so many bad reviews for this company. I buy from them every other month and have done so for a few years now and have never had any issues at all. I highly recommend this company, prices are always great and delivery has always been quick!

World of Books run a very reasonable and reliable service. I love online shops like this. I can only imagine how colourful it would look if it were made of bricks and mortar. Like the inside of Toys R Us. This is my go to place for the books I am looking to buy. Thank you. Highly recommend.

DO NOT PURCHASE BOOKS FROM THIS SITE. They are a bait & switch vendor- the volume sent to me was COMPLETELY different version than advertised. I have been trying to contact them for 4 consecutive days without a response. THESE PEOPLE ARE THIEVES.

I recently purchased Dear and Glorious Physician from World of Books. As soon as I opened it, the spine disintegrated and the book is in an appalling condition. I cannot recommend this seller.

Ordered a book, received a dispatch note and payment was taken but book never arrived. When queried I was told it was never dispatched, they had run out of stock. No communication whatsoever. The item was a present so was completely let down. Dreadful customer service. Avoid.

Just be careful when you buy books here. The children's book I ordered had a long handwritten dedication, which was not mentioned in the description of the condition of the book. World of Books informed me that since they are second hand booksellers, their terms of conditions allow all dedications.

I fully believe this is the worst, by a country mile, company I have ever dealt with. Getting ready to release all correspondence with this company after receiving my 2 books. If they ever arrive. Jeff
