Great communication with the seller over an 'out of stock issue' showing on my order, the answer to my question was very swiftly replied to, putting my mind a ease. The book arrived 2 days later then the specified dates from the seller, but it was worth the wait. The book is of very good print quality and the reproduced photos are a lot clearer than I anticipated them being. The book has a very good appearance and very good value for money. I will use this company again, for such a purchase.
Forgotten Books is an excellent service - Books are printed to order. The book I ordered is a reprint of a Journal from 1907 - of excellent print quality and I highly recommend the company. The book arrived ahead of schedule. I had a query during the order process and it was answered quickly with helpful feedback. Their websites says over 1 million titles online! I would certainly use this company again! Thanks!
Book arrived on time, well packed and as described. Excellent value for money. I wholeheartedly recommend the Forgotten Books service - especially for those favourite text books that were only in the library when you first found them. A genuine 5-star service throughout.
