What our customers are saying...

I write to thank you at Stella & Rose’s Books for my recent purchase, A Guide to the Coast of Sussex, by Mackenzie Walcott. Much sought-after, it is a beautiful copy. I’m enjoying it very much. I really appreciate the excellent service I received : the book was beautifully packed, most secure-ly and quickly dispatched. Some years ago I bought other books from you, via Abebooks U.K. I’m pleased to see your busi-ness continues to prosper, and quite rightly so !

The book arrived a few days earlier than expected and was in excellent condition as described by the seller. The book was carefully and professionally packaged so it would not incur any damage during shipping. I am 100% satisfied. Thank you!

Great transaction. The book was in great condition and exactly as described. When ordering, I didn't realize this seller was in the UK, so when the book arrived in less than a month, I was pleasantly surprised. I would order from Stella & Rose's Books again.

From one retail worker to another, you were both friendly and professional, and you are also a credit to the retail industry. Looking forward to ordering from you again.

Book arrived safely today. I should not be spending 50 odd quid on a book - especially as I already own a different translation of Metamorphoses. But this was irresistible. And it's gorgeous. Thanks again for your excellent site and service, both of which you've sustained so well during these dreadful months.

Arrived earlier than expected and book had extra protection for transporting. Loved it!

Good morning! My package has just arrived and I wish to thank you for both the superb condition of the book itself and the careful and sensible packaging used. So often one receives books from eBay vendors in flimsy pointless coverings; well done Stella and Rose! Hope you’re keeping safe and sane at the present time. I look forward to the day I can drop in and browse. No doubt l will be buying from you again (l buy quite a lot of books). I like efficient sellers!

My order for four books arrived promptly today and never have I felt so compelled to write a note of praise for the level of service and efficiency provided by a retail outlet. All books were exactly as described, if not in a better condition than I had expected and were not just well packed, but exquisitely presented. Individual dust covers, plastic bag sealed and then paper wrapped, before the obligatory card transporting sheath. An absolute work of art resulting in their arrival in perfect condition. Your approach oozes of professionalism and you have just secured yourself another regular customer!

Stellas Books is still No 1 with me. I'm a return customer.

Good Morning from The US, I just received the book that I ordered from you (The Clyde River and Firth), and I couldn't have been more pleased. Thank you for the very secure packaging, and for the prompt posting. Considering the distance it had to travel and the difficult conditions in the world, it arrived in a very short amount of time. I hope we'll be able to do business again soon. In the mean time, please stay safe.

Dear book team, I don’t buy many books from you, but I love reading your newsletters, and hearing about how you are getting on in that lovely part of the country. You have helped to keep my spirits up in this interminable lockdown! I hope you soon get the repairs done and are able to open your door to customers again. With all best wishes,

C.P. (UK), June 2020

The books arrived this morning. They are exactly as described so I am very pleased. I would also say that they were probably the best packed books I have ever ordered. If only new books were shipped so well! This is the first time I have ordered from you but, based on this experience, I will have no hesitation in doing so again.
