Great service at Postscript Books

Great service at Postscript Books. It was easy to order online. I had confirmation immediately and I was updated on when the book was dispatched and expected delivery date. The book was a very good price. It was delivered very quickly. Very pleased with the service and will definitely be using Postscript again. Recommended. Thank you

Great range of new books on offer at affordable prices

Great range of books on offer. Very competitive pricing. All books in perfect condition - and they'll tell you if that's not the case! Well packed and timely delivery. My only reservation is that deliveries are made using Evri and, whilst my deliveries from PSBooks have been OK, this is the exception rather than the rule - at least in this area. I'd happily pay more to have my deliveries handled by a more reliable courier.

Fantastic all-round performance

I was amazed at the all-round performance. The quality of the packing was outstanding and the speed of delivery excellent (next day) by Evri who are usually rubbish! I really can't fault any aspect of the service from condition of the book, quality of its packing, delivery and the responsive interaction with customer service admin. I shall be a regular here I'm sure.

Book buying in 2026 never been simpler. 🤓

So a great experience. The choice of books in the monthly catalogue should meet most people's expectations. The simplicity of ordering from the catalogue straight from my device was excellent.
The delivery far exceeded my expectations with my chosen book arriving within three days. I assume this would have been longer over a weekend.
All in all a great way to buy reading material. I'll be definitely doing this again. 🤓

Amazing selection of unusual titles

The selection of titles offered is wide and diverse. What makes this different is that the titles of the books reflect an overwhelming choice of so many subjects, including titles that are not available in other places. The discounted prices are wonderful and enables a home library to grow.

First class books, service and packaging.

Postscript Books’ website is well designed, easy to use and has a comprehensive range of books, at heavily reduced prices, across numerous categories.

Delivery prices are very reasonable and delivery times are short. The packaging provided is first class, ensuring that the books are received in perfect condition, and all of it is recyclable.
