Book Depository Shopping Experience

A few weeks ago, my husband was lamenting how we was not able to pre-order a book he has been waiting to come out and now that it is out, the price of the said book increased to around 50% of its pre-order price. He is planning to order in the coming days but since it is his birth month, I decided to order it for him instead.

The book, World of Warcraft Chronicle Volume 2, is available in BookDepository, an online bookstore based in the United Kingdom. While it is based abroad, I have no qualms in ordering due to the following reasons:

  • free delivery worldwide with no minimum order required.
  • various modes of payments including VISA, MasterCard, AMEX, VISA Debit, VISA Delta, Maestro, Electron as well as Paypal. For this purchase, I use my HSBC MasterCard.
  • the site is safe and reliable.
  • delivers to the Philippines in less than a month.


Timeline of Order

  • July 21 - Order placed
  • July 25 - Order shipped
  • August 16 - Got notice from the post office about the package
  • August 17 - Package claimed at the post office


Now that I've got positive experience when I made my first order, I am open to ordering more books in the future. This is perfect for someone like me who can barely leave the house to shop.

Have you ordered anything from Book Depository? Or maybe you buy books from other sources? I would love to hear your story!
