Wow - just ordered all these books from the Book People with less than 90 quid as I went via Quidco:

Roald Dahl Collection - 15 Books
Mr Men Complete Collection - 46 Books
Wind in the Willows Box Set - 20 Books
Thomas the Tank Engine Collection - 50 Books

Plus:

Peter Rabbit Series Complete Set (all 23 Titles) from WH Smiths using the 20% discount voucher and Quidco.

Now I just have to get them from the UK to my home in Sweden, where books are 3 times more expensive

Butlers, I don't think you can really complain when you got a book set for a quarter of the retail price

Seriously? You bought a book at a bargain price and you want to claim that it wasn't as much of a bargain as you thought. I'm guessing it was a simple mistake

Yes im being serious, ill break it down, each book says on the back RRP £3.99, there are twelve of them= £47.88.
On the back of the pack its states £39.99 for the complete pack

My gripe is where to they get £74.99 from? its got nothing to do with how cheap the item was, its the principle of the matter, they are advertising goods using figures that do not correlate to anything that is there

I've just bought some Christmas pressies on there, and needed to top up to £40 for the free diary, so bought these too:

Thanks for this, just ordered mine. Even though my son has read some of them, it is still a bargain for the rest of them.

Booksdirect also has this set for £4.99 (+£2.99 P&P) here:

http://www.go.booksdirect.co.uk/affmini1/index_twp.asp

Only catch is you have to be a new member to be eligible, and to buy it you have to join the childrens books club and then buy 4 more books from them over the next 12 months. Still seems like a bargain though, especially if you buy through wepromiseto.co.uk who are offering £16 cashback if you are a new booksdirect customer.

hi there, read your thread on roald dahl books and visited the site straight away. ordered the books and noticed it asked if you had any promotional codes, i quickly popped onto google and typed in... promo codes for book people...visited site retailmenot.com where there was a code for free postage and packing, so for everyone else reading this you can get even more of a bargain and get the books for £15.99.
good luck x

Free postage codes are also on this site, and on hotdeals

I have just purchased these books and i am waiting for them to be delivered. They cost £15.99 and I chose Single Item Shipping as the shipping method and it cost me nothing in postage and packaging, so I have only paid £15.99. And through my account it is letting me track my order.
