I had been looking for long for an EU-based online bookstore with normal prices and fair shipping costs, that also ships to Cyprus and I am so happy I found this bookstore. There's no book I needed that I couldn't find on their website until now. Shipping is also very fast. Would love to visit the physical bookstore one day 🙂
Excellent. Great choice, great prices and great service. The site is easy to navigate too. Highly recommended.
I ordered Baking Yesteryear as a gift for my sibling on Saturday 16th of December, and I am very happy. The book was originally €25, but there was a 30% discount on it meaning that I only got it for €18.22. There was no delivery fee as I’m in Dublin, which was great too, and the website said that it would take 4-8 days to get here, and I assumed that it would take even longer due to it being the holiday season, but no! It’s now Tuesday the 19th December and here I am with the book. The package arrived at my house safely, one corner of the package was slightly dented, but that was probably on the postie rather than Kenny’s. I got emails updating me when the order was confirmed and when the order was shipped, so it’s great on that front too. TLDR; Great prices, fast delivery, and good communication. Very happy, will probably start using Kenny’s as a replacement for the book depository
As someone living in Ireland this bookstore is where i buy all my books. They do free shipping for books with the cheapest listings i can find, and their delivery service is so fast. None of the books i have ordered have come in any way damaged. They are really fast at processing and shipping the books and i can see myself never going to any other store to buy books. Genuinely best bookstore in Ireland 🙋♀️
Excellent selection and service.
Peaceful and great selection
Says they ship wordwide yet they dont ship to most countries that are listed when you checkout. Delivery info says they can't deliver to some countries because of COVID which is ancient history by now. I live in Bosnia and Herzegovina and I don't get why they can't ship there yet they can to every country that is bordering with it. I wrote them once about the issue a couple of months ago and nothing happened since then. Truly a shame.
I have bought several books here and I am very satisfied with them. Shipping to Denmark is a little slow, but I don't mind since the prices are fantastic. Two times my book has arrived damaged and both times they replaced it immediately. I am very pleased and happy about their great service and will keep buying books here.
Nice shop, friendly staff good selection
Unfortunately EXTREMELY slow service. I’ve made my first order on the 7th of April and until today (the 21st) it hasn’t even been dispatched yet. I’m trying to find a replacement for bookdepository and haven’t found any luck yet. Guess its E-books from now on. Update: I ended up canceling and refunding my order via PayPal because kennys customer service wouldn’t even bother replying to emails anymore lmao.
Received my book today. I am in England. I was happy with the time to receive my book and also with the postal price which was less than most ebay sites charge. The book itself is in fantastic condition, as is the protective slip case. The price was very fair. nothing negative to say. A well deserved five stars and i looked you up on trust pilot to write this review- I wasn' t asked. Now going to see what other goodies you can provide me.
They don't have all the books in the world but have a lot of them. It's free postage! I've sent books to family and friends and they charge a very small amount extra. They sent the same book 3 times to my mum as the address was wrong and didn't charge a cent extra!
They are a great independent bookshop with cheaper prices than the other big brand bookshops in Ireland, although delivery was quite slow I was willing to wait it out knowing my money was helping a small independent Irish owned business.
Ordered 3 books, estimated shipping was up to 9 business days, received on 11th day that it will delayed. Finally they shipped it after 15 days, until then prices were lowering, which annoyed me, considering delays. I got the package today, the box was so dented and what I was afraid to see, happened. All 3 with bad dented corners, and the worst one with dirty bottom pages and also like it was in contact with water. Really bad condition. I know sometimes books can arrive with little dents, but this was the worst one I have ever seen, it really bothers me, considering I paid a lot for them and want to be in good condition. Maybe consider using bubble wrap or old paper especially for international shipping. Also this wasn't my first order.
I remember reading somewhere that Kenny's were one of the very first bookshops to have an online service. However they have remained a small, local bookshop. I think that buyers need to bear this in mind when ordering. It can take a while to receive your books. I presume there is only a small staff at work on any given day. The first book I ordered was slow in arriving but when I contacted them to explain that I needed it urgently I got it a day or two later. My next order is taking quite a bit longer. Still no notification after 10 days. However I prefer to wait than to give my business to Amazon or Abebooks.
have been happy to be buying from this bookshop for the last few years now. range isn't too bad at all for a smaller bookshop, prices very reasonable & competitive & postage prices are excellent. to top it off, customer service is possibly the BEST i've encountered in my years of buying books online. i really wish other sites ('awesomebooks', powells books to name a few) took a page from their 'book' in that way. in this day/age, customer service & actual human connection is slipping big time & all we really get are sub-standard items & horrible customer service from many companies (they've largely forgotten what it means to connect to others as PEOPLE). it's strange to think these companies have forgotten that they exist because of US (the customer) - clearly, kenny's understand this... i'd recommend this site/shop very highly in all aspects.
I say this is a lovely bookshop, however the service I found is very very slow. Ordered a book on the 23rd of July and it's the 8th of August and it is still to arrive / possibly be posted. Very disappointing as it's only down the road in the same country. As I say this is no reflection on the shop , just the online delivery service
Was able to purchase rare book. Arrived well packed and timely here in the Netherlands. Shipping was only 1 euro. Very happy customer from mainland Europe. Will definitely buy here again!
Great little independent Irish bookstore I discovered since Brexit. They usually have great prices and shipping to EU countries is only 1 EUR per book. They pack their books very well. Delivery time is a bit longer than some other bookstores as they don’t have many books in stock. If the book is marked “ships quickly” that means it is in stock and they usually dispatch it next working day.
We ordered some audio cds at the last minute and they were sent so promptly. Our little girls are thrilled and we are looking forward to listening to them on our long car journeys that lie ahead. There was also such a wonderful selection of products on offer. We will definitely be shopping with Kenny’s again! Thanks so much, Kenny’s. #veryhappycustomer
