I had been searching a long time for a very special book, found it here at a relatively low price, send a check immediately and went to bed happy. The next day I was informed that the book was no longer in stock, and my check was returned. That was a huge disappointment!
I was thrilled to find a book unobtainable anywhere else listed on this site. Even better it was simple to make the purchase, with no problem buying from outside the US - not all US book sellers cater for international sales. I now await the book's arrival with expectancy!
I purchased from Robinson Street Books a rare item: a calendar featuring photographs of California artists and their works that was published in 1990. The item was accurately described and it was shipped expeditiously. I recommend Robinson Street Books.
Owner and employees great people, easy to talk to, honest and expedient.
Would recommend a million times over.
Will always be my go-to source for purchasing books in future.
Excellent service and utterly knowledgeable and helpful. Highly recommended as a great bookshop who had exactly the books I sought
After seeing the description officially on their website, I purchased what they described and advertised as an "offprint" of this article/paper from the journal Science. I ONLY bought it because it was an "offprint" which is what I was seeking. What they sent me was what is officially called an 'extract' of that article which is basically where the articles is cut out at the edges from the spine of the journal and paper clipped or stapled and sold like that. There is a major difference in an offprint versus and extract, because an offprint is a separate reprint (offprint) of the article made at the printers office with what is called the original 'wrappers' or 'covers' to the layman. Offprints are always more costly and much more coveted by collectors since they are an official separate entity that is printed of the original paper by the printer. Thus this item was grossly misrepresented in their description. My reason for writing this, is that I had asked them that it would only be fair to the customer (me), for them to reimburse me for the return shipping of the item to them, since once they got it back they could confirm that their original description was grossly flawed and misrepresented. I did NOT get reimbursed on my return fees to them even though this was returned to them ONLY because what they sent me was not what I 'thought' I was truly buying. They did not have the dignity to accept that they made a mistake that ANYBODY else could have made including me.
Sold me a book they didn't have in stock. The price was affordable and I was really happy to buy. On a good note my money was refunded quickly.
They responded to my inquiry quickly and professionally. The purchase process was smooth and the book arrived promptly and in great condition.
The book that I had ordered through the website ultimately was not in stock so I had to search over again.
Your Website indicated a book was available when in reality you had none in stock. Keep your website info current!
