I found Eason's on line book ordering to be a very good service. I received emails throughout the time I was waiting for my book to arrive letting me know where it was etc. However I have deducted a star because the amount of packing that came on a simple book was a disgrace. The box contained the book and a very large amount of packing which meant that the book would not fit into my mailbox. As a result I had to walk 2 miles to the nearest post office sorting office to collect it and two miles back. Otherwise it would have cost me 20 Euros for taxies which was more than the cost of the book. All this extra packing was completely unnecessary and very much in line with the additional packing that Amazon regularly sends. I contacted Eason's head office and complained but so far nothing has been done to reduce the size of packing. As a result I buy all my books in Kennys of Galway as they are always very tightly and securely packed with less than half of the cardboard that Easons use. I am trying to save the planet for the children but all this wasted packing is destroying the environment.Since posting this review Easons have taken on what I said and sent my last order with very little cardboard wrapping so it was able to go into my mail box. I have therefore restored my 5 star review.
