    Accurately described, fairly priced, excellent communication and timely delivery. Through no fault of the sender the book arrived in ripped packaging with damaged pages and having been run over by a pallet truck or similar machinery whilst in transit with Whistle. The sender promptly refunded the purchase price and apologised although blameless. I have no qualms buying from them in the future just in their choice of delivery firm.

    Paperback facsimile edition of The Road To Oz. Very good condition, exactly as advertised by seller. Arrived promptly in secure packaging. Better World Books are totally reliable and have an amazing range of books at reasonable prices. Plus, they don't bombard you with advertising and spammy offers like some of their competition. Highly recommended.
