Ends 1st March 2013.
this site is great for locating rare and hard to find books too. I managed to get a cook book from 1938 from there.
thanks OP for the deal I'm definitely going to use it.
This is a great place for buying uni textbooks. Very nicely timed deal as semester is about to start.
Just bought a book yesterday :( but still a good deal!
Anyone have experienced buying textbooks via AbeBooks? They're very cheap, but they all seem to be coming from places like Turkey, India or Malaysia so unsure how legit it is
I ordered an old cookbook from south Africa, I am expecting delivery in the next few days if the estimated delivery date is right. So far it seems legit and pretty straight forward.
like I said its fantastic for hard to find books, you get all sorts of dealers selling books there.
I have ordered at least 5 books from them (but I think mainly sourced from book depository) and they have all arrived fine, and also in good time!
Yeah thats the places where people actually read things that arent of a lcd panel:(
Buy now or you will have to get them from arctic region soon.
I've bought a LOT of used books from Abe, mainly from the UK and India, the books are usually in perfect or good condition, but shipping has always been slow…
yea id agree the shipping could be faster but when its coming from a place like south Africa (no longer a first world country) you can not be too fussy. ill just be glad when I get my book.
I bought one brand new book from there once. "International Edition" of a uni textbook which meant it cost less than half as much as the Australian version. Everything was perfect with the transaction and if I had to I wouldn't hesitate to buy from there again.
I did the same thing last semester and now I ordered another one!
AbeBooks compared to the RMIT bookshop and compared to other sites
I wouldn't necessarily worry about the location. I bought a textbook from NSW last year. It arrived from India with a cover that stated it was the Indian version and was only for use in the Indian subcontinent. That being said, it arrived within a couple of days of ordering - quite amazing. I wasn't sure that it had the same content (it wasn't an 'international' version, plus it was linked to Australian curriculum), so Abe told me to send it back, but I told them their return address was a Sydney one that didn't exist. After a few emails, Abe refunded my money, saying it wasn't what it was advertised as and told me to use the book where I could.
Book depository has store here too, sometimes a few cents more than their own site, but a good way to get 10% off bd too
Actually the book I bought was from Book Depository via AbeBooks, and was already $2 less than the Book Dep website.
Bah, I just bought 3 text books 2 days ago :(
I was going to buy a book from Abe, it says the cheapest is AUD 38 from book depository. But when I checked the book depository site, the same book is for AUD 30.
So had I bought the book from Abe, I would have paid more.
The book is called 'what is the p-value anyway'. I looked for a new one.
As the comment underneath says, use Booko first
thanks. didn't know abour booko
I always check with Booko first. And so if AbeBooks has the cheapest price, 10% off would make it even better! :)
Damn it. Great deals come to those who wait.
Thanks for the code. The sellers aren't loosing any money from this promo code. From what I have read, Abe makes almost 20% off every sale, including a rip off 5% credit card processing fee for the merchant. They are owned by Amazon, BTW, just like Book Depository is. It is disgraceful that governments allow Amazon to maintain this monopoly, but then the true purpose of governments is to help the rich become even wealthier by legally stealing from the poor - the 'conservative nanny state'.
awesome. thanks
Awesome! Just bought a book I need for uni, cheers.
