Very disappointed with my experience. The book I ordered was in very poor condition, the cover was tatty and dog eared and there were pencil notes on almost every single page which were messily scrawled all over the text. I have never seen a book in such appalling condition and I have purchased many second hand books in my lifetime. I complained to customer services who said they were sending a replacement but I haven't received it yet. I was not given a choice of condition when I purchased the book but in my opinion, this wouldn't even fall into the 'well read' category. Needless to say, I won't be using this company again.

Been a repeat buyer from this company for the past few months and have been blown away by the book deals and the quality of used books. Keep it up WOB!! You are the best!

I purchased a dozen of vintage natural history books from WoB through AbeBooks.com at bargain prices. They had all arrived at my doorstep in conditions as described. I live in Malaysia so the shortest delivery time for me was about two weeks, while the longest was about four weeks. Overall, I had a pleasant experience purchasing from WoB so I would definitely return for more.

They sent me a book with a whole chapter missing and 20 pages at the end missing. I emailed customer services and didn't get a reply until I also went on Facebook. Even then, very unhappy with their idea of a resolution!

Hello Melanie, Thank you for your review and we are sorry to hear of your item's condition. This should not have been sent out to you. Sadly we do not have any replacements of the item and we offered you an alternative title up to the value of your item or a full refund. You chose an item that sadly was not in the range we had stated originally, we have offered you another choice or a full refund. We have not received a reply. We reply to emails within 48 hours of receiving them, but bare in mind our customer service team are open Monday to Friday 9am till 5pm. We have looked into your emails and can see you emailed us on the 2nd and 3rd July, we replied on the 3rd July offering the alternative, you did then reply in the evening of the 3rd July and we replied the following morning at 10:26am. We are awaiting a response from this email. Our customer service team and social media team sit separately, although we can see that they spoke to each other yesterday, you Facebook post would not have triggered a reply from our customer service team. Please respond to our email sent yesterday morning and we can either get an alternative title sourced for you or a full refund processed. Many thanks, World of Books
