Blog Vision: unbiased, frequent tips & news for online book buyers

This is a blog about buying books online: where to buy them, how to buy them; what to do, what not to do - basically, how to get the books you want for the lowest price in good time and in the condition advertised.

You may ask, Why would a bookseller (i.e., us: Bookling.com) be willing to send people elsewhere? Answer: because we believe this blog will also raise awareness about us; and if we happen to sell the book you want, and we're the best deal, you'll buy from us. We also sell on all of the big marketplaces (Amazon, Alibris, eBay, etc) so we're not afraid to send you there if that's best for you.

Are we qualified to write this blog? Yes, we buy plenty of books online ourselves. For example, we bought books from other sellers on Amazon marketplace for Christmas gifts this year. Also, because as an online bookseller we keep abreast of the online book world, we know a lot already and are always learning - and can pass our knowledge on to you.

Plus, we haven't found a good source out there for online book-buying best practices--maybe because it hasn't, until now, made sense for anyone to put the time and effort into actually doing it--so we believe we're meeting a need that can help a lot of regular people.

Our commitment is to provide the best information we can to help you buy books online wisely. We believe that when we do this we show ourselves to be credible and that much more trustworthy as a bookseller.

So... stay tuned for tips that will help you buy books online wisely; and for news about the online book world that will impact you as a book buyer.

It is fitting to end this post with a tip, so: Have you tried www.addall.com? It's a great site to find the lowest price for the book you're looking for.
