Better World Books

The Joy of Better World Books is the ability to find, usually at a sensible price, books which have otherwise fallen by the wayside. Perhaps a book was published a long time ago and there is no modern edition. Or perhaps it was only 10 years ago, and the publisher has already moved on. Better World Books, and its international branches, help the curious, and motivated, to find that book.

I have ordered twice from Better World Books and have been very pleased with the quality and service. It was a pleasant surprise that I could find the rare books I was looking for-- easy to use website and cram-jammed with inventory. Shipping was quick. My order a year ago was delayed somewhat at the beginnings of the covid lockdown but Better World was helpful by email with tracking (they sent my order right after receiving it but it got delayed in the mail). Recent order was delivered surprisingly quickly (international shipping!) They are friendly and funny on email, a pleasure to deal with. Will order again.

Once again I was not disappointed. Better World Books always delivers an excellent product. They have a wonderful search engine and I always find what I'm looking for and often, books I wasn't even aware of.

A 2nd hand book seller - and this one is a little difficult. I bought there twice, and twice it went wrong. But there are no doubts that the company is honest and want to give good service. I would have no issues to buy there again.

Order #1: I ordered the wrong book because their website had a mismatch of the book title and the ISBN. After I got the wrong book and informed them they gave me immediately a refund - in fact, they didn't ask me to return the book! (I returned it anyway at my expenses, it's a small thing)

Order #2: It went lost in the postal system. Not their fault. After I notified them they ask me to wait another week or so. After that I was given again a refund without any discussion.

I hope next time I will have more luck.

betterworldbooks.com excellent service and delivery.
I received a second hand book that wasnt quite as expected and they replaced it, no quibble, immediately.

Ordered the book online and was very pleased to receive it. Great condition and will definitely buy from them again. Price is great and arrived in Australia in a great timeframe

BWB have a great selection of books and are reliable about sending them or your money back. I am a rampant bibliophile and a bit of an ancient history nerd and they always keep me happy!

The quality of the books was disappointing.
Two of the books were wrong.
We have used wold books for years and never had a complaint until recently. We are very disappointed

I'm all about reusing, and recycling, so I support this business.
I ordered 3 books, from two different sellers, and I'm very pleased to add them to my bookshelf.

Cheap, easy, fast shipping and delivery. Good for the world to reuse books. Better than Amazon, Amazon don't pay enough tax. Down with bezos.

I received my book really quickly, well packaged – just what I needed and when I needed it! Very many thanks

Reasonable price with a free world wide delivery. Books received In 21 days to Hong Kong. The condition of books reasonable

Great book selection and excellent delivery.
The book i was looking for was one I read several years ago. I'm amazed they had it.

Received. A new copy as expected, in great condition and with very reasonable postage. An excellent bookseller.

Fast fulfilment of order even during covid times. Thank you. I would recommend them to anyone. Good value for money

The book arrived on time and it was utterly fantastic! I bought it for a 50th birthday gift and it was so well recieved.

Very pleased with order, but I'd prefer it if Better World Books did not use plastic packaging material.

Excellent book to read. I would recommend it. It is thought provoking and intriguing. A true story.

I got the book quicker than I thought and at a good price, too! There was even a cute update email.
