The Method
Having identified the ten most ethical, non-tax avoiding online booksellers* using Ethical Consumer magazine’s Ethiscore system, I made purchases from each of them in order to rate the consumer experience.
I issued stars (0-5 for each of 6 categories) and then added the total stars (out of 30) to the Ethicscore given by Ethical Consumer Magazine (out of 20) to give a total score out of 50. Doubling that gives the overall percentage and from it I created my definitive TOP 10 list of the best places to buy books online without using Amazon and other tax avoiders.
*I’ve not included any book sellers who got an Ethiscore of lower than 8 out of 20 in Ethical Consumer Magazine’s rankings. I’ve also omitted Alibris, Waterstones and WHSmith as they all have likely involvement in tax avoidance strategies according to Ethical Consumer Magazine. So, the 10 in my list all have an Ethiscore of 8 or higher and are not likely to be involved in tax avoidance.
The 6 categories chosen for consumer experience
The 6 categories I have chosen to rate the book sellers for are as follows:
1. Website usability
1 star given for each of the following attributes:
– Website speed
– Modern site (mobile-optimised) with easy navigation (inc Quick add to cart option)
– Search bar available on all pages
– FAQs & delivery easily accessible with delivery options easily available on purchase
– Detailed & Accurate product description and user reviews
2. Delivery Charge
Free = *****
Under 50p = ****
Under £1.50 = ***
Under £2.50 = **
Under £3.50 = *
Over £3.50 = 0 stars
3. Delivery Time
Next day = *****
2 working days = ****
3 working days = ***
4 working days = **
5 working days = *
6+ working days = 0 stars
NB: Most of the book sellers offer guaranteed next day delivery for an extra charge, but I’ve focussed on the speed of their standard delivery rate.
4. Price Compared with Amazon
Cheaper than Amazon = *****
Same as Amazon = ****
Up to £1 more = ***
Up to £2 more = **
Up to £3 more = *
Over £3 more = 0 stars
5. Use of Packaging
Fully recyclable, recycled, protective & minimal = *****
As above but instead of being recycled the packaging is from a certified sustainable source = ****
Containing 3 of the 4 attributes from the 4 star line = ***
Containing 2 of the 4 attributes from the 4 star line = **
Containing 1 of the 4 attributes from the 4 star line = *
None of the attributes = 0 stars
6. Range of books
Tens of millions = *****
Millions = ****
Hundreds of thousands = ***
Tens of thousands = **
Thousands = *
Less than a 1000 = 0 stars
I carried this out over a period of 2 months. Every time I wanted a new book, or new a friend or family member wanted one, I searched for it the next platform along alphabetically. All prices referenced on the book sellers’ websites were correct at the time of purchasing (Spring 2017).

Minus 1 star for the map function not working properly on website. This is quite an important part of this site as it locates books closest to you and displays them on the map. When I clicked on the location of a shop I got a map of the whole of London with no location pinpoints. The map was also larger than my screen size, meaning that the ‘X’ to close it was not visible, so I had to zoom out in my browser in order to do make it smaller so that I could find the ‘X’ and close it. Also minus 1 star for the delivery info: General info on the delivery options and costs were not easy to find on the website. Essentially this site is geared towards a click and collect format from a book shop nearby your location. However, they do offer delivery by bicycle courier for all items, so the info should be clear to see.
SPEED: *****
They offer delivery within hours via bicycle courier!
POSTAGE PRICE: 0 stars
The closest book available was a 75 min walk away from the location I chose in Ealing and that was going to cost an extra £8 to be couriered by bike, almost doubling the cost of the book.
BOOK PRICE: ****
Same as Amazon (£8.99)
PACKAGING: n/a
As I don’t live in London I didn’t go through with a purchase so don’t know about the packaging. Their total score has been adjusted to be out of 45 instead of 50 as a result.
RANGE OF BOOKS: **
The range of books available to you from Near St. depends where in London you live. I searched for books near Ealing and the closest book shop associated with them was a 75 minute walk away.
