cosmiccreepers Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 I found some fish books on Amazon.com but I'm unsure whether to buy them. I was worried it would take the 6 weeks like they say to get to us or I wouldn't get it at all, or I'd have to pay postage on each book as they are from different people. Anyone bought from Amazon before? What was your experience like? The good, the bad and the ugly please . Cheers, Cassandra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
anchar Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 Hi Cassandra, My experience is positive. Bought the "Jewel of the Rift" video and received it inside of 2 weeks. No probs. at all. On the matter of 6 weeks...I have purchased a few items on Ebay....6 weeks can equal 3+ months merjo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Matthew Posted January 4, 2005 Share Posted January 4, 2005 G'day Cassandra The books can take a while to arrive. They do have books that we have difficulty purchasing here. The books can (??) be quite a lot cheaper. They are very reliable in my experience. Personally I would post up the books that you are after on the forum. You may be surprised what members have lying around or are able to get at very good prices. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rol&Jas Posted January 5, 2005 Share Posted January 5, 2005 I bought quite a few books from Amazon and even videos and had a positive experience with them. I can also recommend another big online bookstore ABE Books they are very cheap and very reliable and tell you about the condition of the book as well.
