I pre ordered a book from here and moved before it came out. I forgot to change the shipping address and wasn't able to get the package, but they sent me a replacement to my new address for free. Incredible customer service.

Someone stole my copy of a book gifted by a friend somewhere in transit (I received an empty retaped package.) Called to report it and received a new copy the next week. Excellent customer service!
