- r***7 (829)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseThis Seller is the Very Best. From First Contact to Delivery no one can surpass how Fantastic they are. Expertly Packed item, Fast Delivery and arrived in Perfect Condition. The price charged was competitive but not greedy and the postage the cost you would expect. They answered any enquiries quickly and full of the right information. I am so very, very pleased with this purchase and the Brrrrrilliant Seller. Thank you so very, very much. Keep doing what you are doing. Fantastic!Mending the Motocross Champion by Jean C. Gordon [Paperback] (#167190986672)
- s***a (96)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseOriginal despatch of the book from Australia was delayed and I had to chase it up when it didn't arrive. The seller apologised and offered a refund but I opted to wait. The missing book was then sturdily packed, speedily despatched, and arrived quickly and in pristine condition so I am happy I waited. Though they got off to a bad start, the seller redeemed themselves and I would buy from them again.The Amber Owl by Juliet Marillier [Paperback, 416 pages] (#167406523405)
- 1***d (10166)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseQuiried where the order was after nearly two weeks, was told it was sent by various operatives, it was marked as dispatched, then I was told I’d get a full refund as suppliers could not supply, but book was still listed but now at a higher price. Once I chased up the refund I was refunded and had to buy the book elsewhere. Disappointed-Yes, confused with conflicting statements-Yes, fully refunded-Yes, had to buy elsewhere-Yes. Other buyers warn of caution, I should have taken this warning!
