So happy to have a long lost book back in my possession
Just received my copy of a book from my childhood that I've wanted to replace for decades. Condition was precisely as described and it was very carefully and safely packaged. Service was excellent and immediate. I could not be happier to have a replacement for a long lost friend back on my bookshelf. Thank you Setanta Books

Great selection of photography books & fantastic service
Since I found out about Setanta books they're my go-to place when I have a photography book craving (which means always). They have a great selection of books that are difficult to find anywhere else. And their customer service is amazing (thanks for your help, Keith!).

Signed photography book
Purchased a pretty rare signed photography book from Setanta (via abe books) and was really impressed with their service.
I purchased on Monday AM and the book was posted a couple of hours later. Received well packaged, in perfect condition and exactly as described. The book came with some unique ‘top trumps’ cards of photographers that Setanta had produced themselves, a lovely little touch.
Keith kept in good communication throughout and I would recommend Setanta’s services to anyone looking for similar products.
