I wish I had read these reviews before
I wish I had read these reviews before choosing a book from Brit books It arrived no delay however I recoiled when I pulled out the book It felt really grubby had yellowed pages with lots of wear on the front cover where it had been scraped and touched leaving small white areas of print ink missing The back cover corner had been fully bent over at some point leaving a great deep crease the pages were a bit curled and the whole thing was just grubby and disgusting I didn t pay much for the book hence it s next stop will be my recycle bin I do object however to this book being described as very good Brit books employees need their eyes tested and maybe go to Specsavers Joking aside you re ripping people off selling used books and describing them as very good when they are no such thing I ve bought many used books from a different site and they have been spot on in their description Perhaps the cost was a clue that I didn t quite register even so I certainly would NOT buy from here again That old adage is reverberating in my brain you get what you pay for in this case Yes I did lesson learnt

Avoid at all costs
I ordered 6 books described as in Very Good Condition 3 were badly damaged The time and trouble it took to get a refund is another example of their incompetence They couldn t even apologise

Avoid - Book Never Arrived No Comms at All
Avoid - Book Never Arrived No Comms at All Attempted to buy a book from them in Feb 2024 paid via Paypal and had a transaction hold email from Paypal but no other communications to suggest an invoice or order confirmation Emailed and contacted via website but no replies Have checked today and appears that the PayPal transaction has been cancelled or timed out but there has been absolutely no communication from Brit Books at all Would avoid if you actually like to receive an order or like a response from customer services

Lied about sending the book and
Lied about sending the book and provided incorrect tracking number I have reported them to the insolvency services they will send lightweight books that cost little to make it appear they are sending items and then say don t bother to return they are scammers and get away with it because its only a small amount of money lost so people probably don t bother to report them

Very poor condition
Book described as very good It is very poor The spine is badly broken the back and front covers are bent the pages yellowing but the worst is that throughout the book passages random words and sentences are underlined Disgraceful
