All deliveries from our Auckland warehouse to customers within New Zealand are free of charge.

We source books on our website from various publishers, distributors and Wholesalers. The approximate time before we ship your item is displayed below it's price. 

After Covid most of the larger publishers (Penguin Random House, Harper Collins, Hachette etc) who have warehouses in Australia reverted to supplying New Zealand booksellers by sea-freight apposed to previously using air-freight. This method has added weeks to our previous supply timeframes.

We now offer a quicker service on some titles. If in stock at our UK or US wholesalers we can get you order to you in 5-10 business days. 

If a title can be send by this service the option will show as a dropdown choice. As the express delivery option incurs air-freight costs the price of the item may be slightly higher to cover this.
