Book Depository

[Liam]

For those of us who shop at Book Depository, taking advantage of its (usually) lower prices as compared to Amazon (especially for titles published in the UK) and free shipping, some bad news: the online store will be closing at the end of this month, ? I'm trying to come up with a list of items I still want to buy from them before they go, but I'm drawing a blank.

I hope Abe Books doesn't close down too.

^Both are owned by Amazon now (I think), so who knows, ?‍

I know. I fear for it.

Blackwell's has the same selection and free delivery and their prices are usually better. For example, there are two books I have my eye on that both sites stock. At Book Depository they are $14.20 & $13.98, while at Blackwell's they are $11.57 & $10.33.

^Thanks for the suggestion!

Don't tell me they're owned by Amazon too, ?

Thanks ! And they deliver to Brazil. Depository didn't.

A few years ago I used to purchase a lot from BD, especially books from Spain. Then prices increased significantly and shortly after the pandemics start they stopped delivering to México, so basically I lost them a while ago.

Do they have books in other languages?

Yes, though how broad of a selection I can't say. Unfortunately they don't seem to have an option to filter search results by language that Depository has.
