Pros: Lots of books, good prices, easy to navigate, reliable service Cons: none
I have been purchasing books from Barnes and Noble.com for about three years now. I probably order from them every other month or so. NEVER have I had any problems.
They sell books...of course. They also sell college books (hey, now...

2. Very wide selection of merchandise - you can get books, music, many other items which are great.
3. A...

I've used Barnes & Noble's online store (bn.com) since it's inception in the late 90s. As a stand-alone web site, it is a poor second to Amazon.com, but when combined with the reach of the many Barnes & Noble stores scattered all over suburbia, it ...

I love the store off-line and on-line. My on-line experience has been perfect. We live about a hundred miles from the nearest Barnes and Noble Bookstore and so we have had to rely on ordering our books on-line. We have never had a problem, the books ...

Pros: Great selection, many discount items Cons: Customer service, ability
I placed an order with BarnesandNoble.com on Wednesday, the 12th of December. B&N had a special promotion which offered free three-day shipping with UPS if you:

Barnes & Noble is one of my favorite stores. They have a hefty selection of computer books, better than BAM.COM AKA Books A Million, and they concentrate on selling books, in contrast, Amazon sells everything but the kitchen sink. I started shopping ...

There is very little difference in price between the major online bookstores. So what do I look for? Service (which online just means getting the thing delivered in a reasonable amount of time, and not giving away my credit card info) and Availability....

Terrible - poor service, poor communication, all bad -- and this happened twice! I ordered from them last summer and received someone else's order in error. I returned it the same day and spoke with customer service who assured me my correct item would ...

Pros: Good selection of items, packaging Cons: Lack of customer service.
I’ve bought quite a number of items from Barnes and Noble in the past. CD albums, CD singles, DVDs and of course, books. Here’s what I think of them based on my personal experiences. (It should be noted however, that I’ve not used them in quite a while,...

I have placed two orders with Barnes&Noble.com, the first in 2002 went fine, but my recent holiday order was another story. I ordered 2 cds that qualified for "faster delivery", and a DVD that "usually ships within 24 hours". I placed the order on ...

I had heard of B&N online store a lot and had visited a lot as well, but never had purchased (because if you do shop online a lot, many other online book stores offer better price. when I compare price, I usually choose to buy at other store). But when ...

I routinely switch between B&N and Amazon for book orders based on price. I have found that Barnes & Noble has a slightly better selection of books, particularly with regard to academic titles. Amazon seems to focus more on high-volume sales. While ...
