We recognise that when buying books over the internet there are various aspects that are important.
1. The book should be as described. 2. Buying the book should be a straightforward process. 3. Books should be well packed, protecting corners to ensure that they are not bumped. 4. A speedy service should be provided. 5. The client should be informed when the book has been posted or if there is going to be a delay.
We aim to satisfy all these points and we receive many positive emails by way of feedback. A selection of them is given below.
If you have any comments we would be pleased to hear from you.

Just to say thanks for this parcel of books!
There is something respectful of old wisdom in the way you carefully wrap each book. Even if a book be well-handled and a bit dog-eared, the fact that it is wrapped gives it, for me, the status of a present - something worth presenting. I value the book the more.
So: thank you! You are providing a marvellous resource for my (rather belated) horological education! AF(UK) 10/02/2022

The book arrived this morning, packed to Olympic standard and probably capable of withstanding a nuclear attack. The description of the condition was "a very good copy with good dust jacket." I think it merits a far better description . I would have said at least "excellent" or "mint." If this book warranted "a very good copy" I would very much like to see an example which you awarded a higher accolade! Brilliant service - thank you very much. RS (UK) 04/08/2020

I wish more booksellers would follow your example. AF (UK) 06/01/2020
