I had a great experience with Landmark again this year. Online ordering and delivery to my mums house meant we can be on holidays until the end of Jan without a worry.

I've just dealt with these people for my son's school books and equipment and I have to say they are excellent.

We were a little late organising this, but it was no problem to them. Books were ordered on line (but you can pick them up) and arrived at our door one day later. Everything was complete as ordered, packed beautifully and of the highest quality. The prices were very reasonable too, especially for things like the calculator and safety glasses which I'd priced higher elsewhere.

Just make sure you are accurate with the ordering process - one number different can mean something else entirely from what you wanted.

They have a few other branches - Berwick, Essendon, Seaford and some further afield in Geelong and Shepparton.

They were the nicest people to deal with and nothing was too much trouble - this was a change from some others I have dealt with.

They also have a large range of study guides and reference books as well as all the booklisted ones. They regularly visit the school to follow up on support for any items and they now also supply the various formats of ebooks which are coming into use in some schools.

Very happy but ... now I finally have to do some work and label everything.
