Advantages: Good service, efficient, fast
Disadvantages: a penny or two more expensive on some items

...I have now bought books on line from both Amazon and BOL and there are some clear differences between the two. Although they both look very similar online, I have found that the speed of delivery, accuracy of order and customer services department far superior at Amazon than at BOL. Whilst BOL may be a few pence cheaper on some items, my experience has been that it is always worth sticking to Amazon as their operation is fast and efficient. The only advantage that I can see that BOL has over Amazon, is that if only part of an order is ready, BOL will send it and not charge you any extra Postage and Packing charges, whereas Amazon will only send it out when it is all ready or will charge you extra to send it out item by item. I have never had any problems with Amazon but plenty with BOL... Read review

Advantages: quick and helpful
Disadvantages: none

...I first came across Amazon last year when I was doing a search for places in the UK that I could buy books from online! Since finding Amazon, I will not order books from any other site. I think Amazon are excellent in every aspect of the way they run thier business. It is very efficient, by emailing you as and when yor order is processed and when your goods have been despatched. There is also an online order tracking facility, so you can be kept up to date immediately as to the status of your orders. I have also compared Amazon prices with other well known book stores online, and Amazon are excellent value for money! You can even order books which have not yet been published, they will hold your order till the books have been released by the publishers, and then send them on to you as soon as they get them. They have sch a wide range... Read review

Advantages: Listening to cds before you buy and reductions on products
Disadvantages: none

...Amazon is definitely a great way to shop online - for books (bought several), videos, gadgets and most importantly cd's. This had to be the site's best advantage. Not only can you buy most cd's at a competitive price to the local high street stores but you can listen to extracts of the tracks as well. This is brilliant in order to find a cd that suits your taste and ensures a good buy. It also enables you to hunt different styles and genres in order to find discover new bands that maybe you hadn't heard of. There is the american version but also the english amazon (www.amazon.co.uk) which allows you to get products but not necessarily with shipping costs as well (if you live in england that is). Shopping at Amazon beats battling the crowds anyday!... Read review

Advantages: free shipping, huge catalog, reliable
Disadvantages: marketplace shipping (not really amazon's fault)

...Amazon started in the USA is 1995 as an online bookstore. It soon diversified and over the years added many new products such as DVDs and video games. Amazon is now established in a wide variety of countries. When you visit "www.amazon.co.uk" you are greeted with their clean and useful homepage. In includes a few of their many great deals available at the current time and featured products. If you have registered with Amazon and already bought some stuff it also recommends products you may be interested in. This feature works well and I have found myself buying things it has recommended on a few occasions. The categories are listed down the left side of the page. You can perform searches of the whole website or specific sections from the homepage as well. Amazon has many categories and a vast quantity of products listed... Read review

Advantages: -
Disadvantages: -

...Amazon.co.uk has a wide variety of functions. The quality and the quantity of the books on offer at amazon.co.uk is vast. Amazon also sells games and other products. I bought several books from amazon.co.uk, and they arrived on time as they predicted. They are a warm and sensitive company and are open to opinions, to improve customer quality and the quality of the website, this website has many links to other very good websites, but amazon.co.uk must be one of the best online shops I have visited in a long time. They always offer the latest PC and console games. And as soon as a movie or other videos are released they are instantly put on display at amazon.co.uk. When you have a problem receiving (buying a book or other product from them) they will happy to oblige to comments or opinions on how to improve their customer care.... Read review

Advantages: Great selection, fast delivery
Disadvantages: Relatively expensive

...Amazon claim to be the best, but are they? Well, frankly, yes. After taking the leap from online bookstore to all in e-tailer, Amazon has gone from strength tp strength and while that may not yet translate into outright profitability, it soon will. So lets look at a few points... Delivery Times - They tell it like it is, if they say they can get it to you within 48 hours then they can. If it will take a little longer then they tell you that as well. Some say that the main reason not to use services like Amazon to buy music is that you cant listen to your purchase right away. Well, unless you're a complete technophobe you might as well download a couple of tracks on mp3 to tide yourself over for a day or two. Prices - While Amazon.co.uk is not yet fully down with the idea that less physical overheads means lower prices... Read review

Advantages: Excellent choice, competitive prices, superb and fast service
Disadvantages: Postage in the UK is a bit steep...

...Amazon is easily the biggest name for online shopping for books, CDs videos and DVDs, and the service that they offer certainly does more than enough to back up their reputation. Not only do Amazon offer the widest range of goods, but the delivery times are always very quick indeed, whether you are ordering for home or abroad - indeed, within the UK, 24 hours is the norm... Another good feature is the fact that when you register for Amazon.co.uk, your details are automatically stored for use on the other country-specific sites so that should you win a gift voucher for Amazon.de or Amazon.com, you would be able to log on to those sites and access your personal account details straightaway. Perhaps the only gripe lies with postage costs for deliveries within the UK, as these are astronomical compared with the charges from Amazon... Read review
