Popped in to buy a book in Easons in Nenagh, and needed assistance, but thankfully, a girl called Caitlin was around to help. She was so happy to help and so cheerful, one of the nicest staff members... See more

Just tried ordering two items via the Easons website. The order failed but my Paypal account was still debited. Businesses as large as Easons should invest more into these revenue channels -... See more

Always great service when I order from easons! Most recently I ordered two books (which were both cheaper than other stores) Monday evening and they arrived the following day I couldn't believe it, delivery was so fast! And of course, both books were in perfect condition! I would highly recommend ordering from this company!

Covid Cert

Will never shop in Easons again for imposing the medical apartheid that is the covid cert. Appalling treatment of Irish citizens.

Received my easons order with school…

Received my easons order with school books today. 99 c per book cover. All they did was stick a plastic cover on that is way too big and will be cracked in a short space of time. I will be returning the books and covers and will be purchasing them in my usual book store which 1. Doesn’t charge for delivery and 2. Covers the books properly. I only ordered from Easons as some of the books were out of stock at my usual store. Never again will I be ordering from Easons.

All things considered, better than Amazon

I regularly order from Easons on line and have always found the service above average. You can buy the same books on Amazon a little cheaper but then have to pay the exorbitant P&P charges that Amazon charge to send something to Eire. With Eason's anything over €10 (which must be 95% of books) is free P&P and your supporting an Irish company and an Irish postal service.

Really happy i was able to get a book in store which could be found no where else except Amazon, and it did not cost much more than Amazon which was a surprise. And really nice staff member should me where book was located.

Fantastic service

Yesterday I left a selection of cards totalling 19 euro in my shopping trolley. When I got home and realised my mistake I contacted Easons in Douglas Court Cork where I had purchased same items. They had no record of items being found but this morning I received a call to say they had been handed in. They were soaking wet but Easons had replaced each and everyone of them bar one for which they had no exact copy. When I called they offered me a choice of any other card to replace this one.
A lovely gesture. Way and above the call of duty. It was my fault but they were brilliant in their customer service

Cost of ink cartridges in Easons shops

I went to my local Easons to buy some ink cartridges. For HP350 and HP 351 (combo pack), it was 65.50euros. When I went to Tesco the following day, the same product was priced 54.99 euros. After doing more checks online, 55euros seems to be the average price. Very disappointed in this cost difference. Will be shopping around in future.

If I could give no stars I would

If I could give no stars I would. It’s been over a month since I placed the order. Shows that it’s dispatched but not recognized by An Post. All customer service responses remain unanswered. Such a shame that a once mighty institution can’t get their act together in. Epic fail

Eason Extreme poor service.

Extreme poor service.
Ordered one book 13 euro from Eason on 9 February, its now 16 feb.
The book is 3 euro dearer on Eason compared to other sites in UK.
I want to support irish businesses and I understand why there are delays at this time.
I contacted Eason customer support and all I get is one automatic reply to my 4 emails as to my order.
The tracking number is saying not in their system even today at 11 am
Unfortunately I would not recommend Eason, and I will be ordering from hopefully another irish supplier.

I ordered 1 book on 04/02/2021

I ordered 1 book on 04/02/2021, still havent got it on 12/02/2021?? I am in Ireland, how difficult could it be to send it. I got an email soon after with the tracking number, which led me to anpost tracking, and it turns out that it hasn't even been shipped yet? 8 DAYS LATER!!!! I sent a message to their contact centre, automatic response. Tried to ring, no answer. Never buying from them again.

No contact whatsoever

Ordered the Billie Eilish book a few weeks ago. I was stupid and forgot to fill in my house number. I’ve been trying to get in contact with them for weeks now and they don’t reply on any platform. Also when you call them no one answers. It’s frustrating and I’m very afraid that I’ll never get in contact with them and I will never receive the book. It’s very upsetting...

Bad fail for Easons re basic politeness …

Aggressively accosted at door of Easons Galway by junior clearly inexperienced staff who refused me admission as I did not have the specific title of the book I wished to purchase. This against the backdrop of an ( not surprisingly)empty shop. There is politeness and rudeness.. guess which I saw. Never again. Why bother opening.
