Here's my predicament - I'm after a few books and have found them cheaper by miles on the "Book24" site... But can't find any reviews of them as a company anywhere and haven't heard of them before, so I'm a bit wary.
Has anyone ever shopped with them before, and if so, are they okay?
Thanks in advance x

There is no about us link and shipping and returns is a blank page

Is it possible you can post the titles and authors0 -
Or in the meantime try the MegaShopBot. ISBN would also be helpful.0

I found a book yesterday on this site which was really cheap and like you I was a bit suspicious but if you click through to check out it takes you to Amazon. They seem to be all independent sellers on that site and you purchase through Amazon, with their postage charges. I bought the book as I was happy to go through Amazon. HTH0

Any news on this? I'm in the same situation and wondering whether or not to trust the site...? Did you both get your books?0

I get the distinct impression that this site doesn't sell any books whatsoever.
I made 'test' purchases on two items and when I proceeded to checkout I got redirected to two different Amazon Marketplace sellers. So the site owner is probably earning affiliation fees for the redirects.
But if you go directly to Amazon for your books you'll have a greater range of prices to choose from.

Book24's prices do look very attractive on the face of it but they very craftily haven't included the sometimes hefty delivery charges.0 -
I tried to checkout and I got the message that they do not currently ship to my region, which is strange for a supposed UK site0
-
Same message when I tried as well. Perhaps London only considering they have a London contact address.0
