Super friendly staff that will search the store and the far corners of the Internet to find you that book you’re looking for. They also have a good range of hard to find pop culture books like ‘goodnight iPad’ & ‘go the f*** to sleep’
They are also faster than amazon by an average of 3 weeks.
Viva the return of the bookshop! Death to the Internet stores!

Excellent customer service and a pretty good range of books given the size of the store. Whenever I need something they either have it or they can order it in.

I’ve never really been a fan of QBD, I think they are probably way down the bottom of the bookshops I like to frequent if I’m ranking on service, variety and price.
The selection is pretty poor, and what they do have seems massively overpriced in comparison to other bookshops.
Add to that poor (or non existent) service and you’ve all but lost me as a customer.

QBD stands for Queensland Book Depot, and not surprisingly, started in Queensland. South Australia currently has three locations and I have had the odd and unsatisfying browse in the Tea Tree Plaza store. Why is this place thriving when Borders and Angus and Robertson struggled? This chain store looks like a doctor’s waiting room and the reading material is somewhat similar. QBD has very little in the way of quality new releases, and the staff look bored and don’t seem to know much about the books they’re selling.
Seems to me that QBD are buying whatever the wholesalers have a lot of, ergo: whatever vampire teen novels are being flat packed that day. QBD don’t actually even have a literature section, they just have a small ‘classics’ shelf with a random collection of authors from Joanne Harris to Marcus Zusack. I get why people like it, you can grab discounted cook books and teen novels very cheap for gifts. But this fluoro ode to discounts leaves me cold.
