These guys are sensational. I don't know how they do it for the price. And the site is so fast, you can find what you want in seconds.

I've bought school text books on here which could not be got from any other place, and rare children's books which are out of print.

It's so easy to use - just type in the title or author, and it gives you a range of prices and places to get them from. Just brilliant.

For Christmas I was able to get my son some of the "Spooks" series at basically a third of the cost. And all postage free from the UK.

I support Aussie book shops too, but this place is a treasure mine of information and resources.

Ordered items can be tracked and take a week or ten days to come.

Approximate cost: $8 av. for a $17.00 equivalent in Aus. (new book)

I use booko often to compare prices for books. I usually know roughly who will come out at the best price but booko is great for confirming this and has helped me to find the better deal on several occasions. I'm really thankful to the friend who suggested I try booko and just need to remember to check their first each time I want to find a book

Booko searches the web for the suppliers of books, dvds or ebooks you are looking for. You don't purchase through Booko, but connect to the supplier listed after you enter your search details.
You can search by author, title, ISBN or EAN codes. Depending on the item, Booko can list anywhere from one to around 40 suppliers who stock that item.
It lists the supplier, item cost, shipping cost and total cost beginning with the cheapest total cost at the top of the list and ending with the most expensive at the bottom.
A friend recently wanted a DVD Box set he found on an overseas site but, as a student, couldn't afford it.
I told him about Booko and he found the item cheaper at BigW. He got it on lay-by. A win for Aussie retailers and a win for him!

Approximate cost: $Varies, but savings can be anywhere up to 70-80% for some items

Interesting I didn't know a company like that existed.

I won't buy a book anymore without consulting booko.com.au first. Simply enter the book you want (or DVD) and it'll bring up a range of options. Choose the most relevant then it delivers results of the cheapest retailers across the world, shows the price plus shipping (if not free). It includes bookdepository, amazon and mainstream book suppliers that you'd be familiar with, as well as ebay listings. Then you simply click on the retailer link and it takes you to their site for you to purchase. It's easy and you'll be amazed at how cheaply you can buy books when you have booko.com.au at hand.

How interesting.

I found out about Booko via Simple Savings several years ago. Booko is the best resource for finding the cheapest version of a book or DVD. I've used it only for books, but have always been pleased to find who has the cheapest specific book I am looking for. Definitely recommend!

I was told about Booko and thought I'd give them a try....ordered 2 books and received them in good condition even though they were 2nd hand copies. Couldn't be happier with their pricing and delivery....will use again for sure!

Its hard to find books these days, that arent electronic. Tis site has a huge range, and at good prices. Postage is quick also, which is a perk.

no more running around trying to get great deals or a bargin, you just type in the book or dvd title you are looking for and it gives you a list of places you can purchase it from and even the postage cost. All this in a flash - it takes no time to load up.

Buying books and dvds in australia then you must use this site because it shows you the price list for item what you requested in all the retail and online book shop so that you can choose the best one which sells for low price

This website is amazing, being able to compare the prices of the books/dvds that you need let's you save a lot of money, shipping price is also included. Loads quickly & easily.
