We offer more than 10 million English titles across a wide range of different categories and are working on increasing our catalogue to cover as many genres as we can. Our aim is to build a large catalogue to suit all readers’ tastes and interests. All titles are offered at very reasonable prices with free delivery to a wide range of countries.
We offer all our readers a wide range of products not only in English but also in other languages such as Arabic, Spanish and French. No matter where they are published and in what language, we believe our readers deserve access to the books they desire to read at reasonable prices. We will continue to try to source all books from all languages from local and international suppliers to deliver them to our customers within an acceptable time frame at affordable prices.
We usually have a sufficient stock of the books we advertise on our website, or access to additional copies via one of our suppliers, however in some rare instances certain items are made unavailable from suppliers, in such a case we will send you an email as soon as we are notified that a certain item is out of stock. A full refund will then be debited back to your account.
We aim to offer the most accurate book information at all times. We maintain extensive industry relations with a number of publishers, wholesalers and distributors allowing us to pass on savings to our customers. We apply a discount to the sale price of our books whenever possible to offer our customers the lowest possible price based on where we source the book and the cost of logistics needed to get it to one of our warehouses and out to you. Our suppliers may increase their prices unexpectedly, and, given the international scope of our business the logistics costs can also change from time to time, hence, our prices may change accordingly. We will make reasonable efforts to present accurate information but we cannot guarantee the price or our ability to supply any particular book. In the rare event where we are unable to supply a book due to a pricing error howsoever caused, we will check with you first to see if you still wish to receive the item at the new price.
In light of Territorial Publishing Rights, some book editions are published in certain countries and restricted in others, this is also applicable to some delivery destinations. For example, referring to market restricted editions, some US editions are restricted in the UK and some others are restricted in certain geographical territories due to sponsorship. Although, we do our best to keep our data as accurate as possible, sometimes we get them wrong. If you come across an edition you believe is being sold in error, please let us know by sending email to help@ibiidi.com , we will endeavor to rectify any issue as soon as possible.
