by LucyLou_dt1 , Aug 29 '02
Site was easy to navigate. Ordered a law school guide that hadn't been published yet, so it took a few weeks to ship, but no one (amazon, etc) had the book either. Book arrived promptly and was well packaged. I would definitely order again....

Better than the big A

by chattyl , May 19 '02
Quick and easy searching even for out of print items. Great customer service. OP (out of print) items are not "third partied" as at the other online stores; saving lots of time and energy (and very helpful when looking for a special gift). I work in...

The best online bookstore I've found. You can tell the staff really cares about books. The newsletter is hilarious, the interviews are great, and the prices (for used and sale items) are just about the best around. I wish every web store was this...
