Tom W. Ayling Anmeldelser 

Sadly my book arrived damaged in the post, but Tom gave me a full refund immediately.
Full marks for service, and I will certainly return again.

Buying from Tom has been an excellent experience. Rare books purchases are difficult online, but Tom is excellent in his communication about each book he sells, making the process easy and safe for newcomers.

Fabulous stock, easy to navigate website, my order arrived very, very quickly.

Terrific. Book quality was outstanding and the packaging was outstanding too. This was my first rare book purchase and would buy again from Tom! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

I've been following this bookseller since his You Tube videos when he was working for another bookshop. His posts were highly clever, original, witty and educational without being stuffy or condescending. After he went out on his own and opened his own bookshop I've been a faithful customer and his courtesy and professionalism is first rate. Mr. Ayling ranks as someone who's made a great impression on the rare books community and his down to earth attitude to his customers is much appreciated.

beautifully packaged, reasonable overseas shipping costs, book as described, enjoyable videos

Arrived quickly and very well packaged. Very pleasant experience overall.

I purchased a circa-1695 map of England from Tom W. Ayling and could not be happier. Communication was excellent, and I was very impressed with the care taken in packaging the item for shipping. I highly recommend doing business with the firm. Tom’s YouTube videos are also both entertaining and educational.

Packaging was clearly done carefully and with great respect. It was very pleasant to see the extra items from Tom like a note and a card detailing the background of the pieces.

Items arrived very quickly (even when shipping to the USA!) and were even better in person than the online representation!

Overall very happy with the experience and even happier with the purchase!

Great service and would wholeheartedly recommend this vendor to anyone who is interested in purchasing antique books. I ordered the deluxe folio society edition of The Lord of the Rings along with The Hobbit for a good price, and both were packaged well and arrived promptly.

Excellent service from start to finish. I rang Tom a couple of times to clarify things and the service was perfect. Cannot recommend enough shop with confidence.

Amazing experience…love the book I bought.

The book arrived in good condition. I am pleased. I hope to see you at the San Francisco book fair

My books were packed very well and came safely without damage. The books looked like what was represented on the website and in very good condition. I was quite happy with my purchases and will look forward to purchasing books in the future.

Great customer support.
Fast delivery, extremely professional.
Highly recommend

Great comms, securely packaged. Swift delivery. Book as described. Fantastic value. Would definitely buy from again. Highly recommended 😀👍

Package arrived in perfect condition. All questions and concerns were answered promptly before order placement. Looking forward to buying again!

Tom was very helpful and kind and my experience was exceptional. I am very glad to have done business and looking forward for many more!

Absolutely amazing experience purchasing from Tom and his team. It was put simply a pure pleasure. There are few aspects to purchasing from Tom, the first being his awesome webpage. It’s simple and easy to navigate with a wealth of information on each book/item. The prices are clearly marked and there are options for different kinds of shipping, which I might add here, that they ship globally. The second, well that Tom’s magnificent social media outlets, where he not only talks about items he currently has to offer (if you stay up to date, and act fast. Because well the times don’t stay around for long) but also about the world of book collecting too. You can reach out to him and the team through the social platforms and purchase that way too. And of course the third way is to contact Tom and the team directly, and trust me they are all ways ready to help, and go above and beyond any expectations you have.
This time round I purchased from the webpage after seeing a post on one of Tom’s social platforms, and with the simple press of a few buttons, it was all done. I chose the Royal Mail option (as I’m in the UK) and to be honest I wasn’t expecting it Dispatched, Shipped and Delivered (as this was only a couple of days before Christmas) but sure enough the next day my book arrived. It came very securely wrapped and protected, and was delivered safe and sound.

I can not express just how marvellous Tom, the team, and the shopping experiences are. If you are in the market for rare books, manuscripts and medieval art and works… There simply is no better.
