I'm trying to weigh up getting a kings membership card vs buying from the book depository or similar.
I've had a few books from the book depository get damaged in transit and the customer service has been mediocre.
but. I'm behind in my purchasing of trades at the moment. so I'm looking at getting 8 trades. through kings comics that comes to about $252, with a $25 gold membership included, it works out to be about $252 including the 10 % discount, ironically. with the book depository, including postage I can get the whole lot for $184. That's not a bad price difference.
even saving 10% on the cover price of the Phantom, which is pretty much the only other comic series I spend money on, I'd only be saving another $25.
the membership last for a year, so I could save another $20 to $30 on another 7 odd transformers trades but I could save approximately another $60-$70 buying the same books from the book depository.
It looks like I'm going to be spending more money at the book depository. And spending the savings on Transformers:D
For me, Book Depository has been great for packaging so I would be more than happy to keep getting stuff from them. Although I guess it only takes one bad experience to put you off.
to top it off I subscribed to the phantom. so I don't' even need to go to the shop for that anymore.
I'm surprised to hear that you've had a few books damaged - I've regularly bought from them for years now and never had any books (all paperbacks) arrived damaged.
Could this potentially be your postie's handywork?
Perhaps have them sent to work?
I had one that was water damaged, badly and the shipping box/envelope was undamaged. it never should have been sent.
Another very early on was a black and white digest style trade, there were about 5 pages that weren't even cut. that one I got a refund on.
True, I've had a few that were also definitely part of the shipping services fault, a trade that had it's spine shattered, through the shipping envelope. but there's no way of knowing where in the long chain that happened. Our local postie is usually very good.
All the Legends toys are classed as 15 and up as well Gok, so its been like that since at least then. Not too sure about when they were generations.Quote:
