Lost the book and had no idea they lost it. Had to wait 3 months to find that out. Customer support got defensive and blamed everyone else but themselves. Spoke to someone named Sofia Krysiak. F... See more

Great company!

These folks are great! Keith was very responsive when I had a shipping concern. Top notch customer service, and to cap it off they have an amazing selection of really interesting, unique, reasonably priced photo books. Couldn't ask for more, will be doing business with them again.

Truly a five-star experience

Truly a five-star experience. I ordered my book in the afternoon and it was delivered to me the following morning. An accurate description of the item, and courteous communication, made the whole transaction a great pleasure. I look forward to buying from Setanta Books again.

Excellent Service

Excellent service, I was emailed that they had some delays with my order, and that they wanted to be sure I received the conformation email. It was nice to hear from them rather than be left in the dark, I would definitely buy from them again!

Wonderful Experience

Had a wonderful experience buying from Keith (Setanta Books). Besides the printing quality they deliver, the quality and the attention they put on customers it’s beyond 5 stars. Hope to buy more stuff soon.

Brilliant!

Great service, personal communications are a nice touch and sorely lacking from many other online retailers.

Book arrived well packaged and quickly. I even received an email a few days after it arrived to make sure I had it and was happy.

Greta service, great books, will buy again!
