I have ordered books worth close to 5k from it, and have had a pretty good experience so far. I think I would recommend them. Hi Deb,

They are unashamedly scamming customers of their hard earned money with false deals. God only knows how a reputable media house like The Hindu has tied up with them. I got scammed of Rs. 500 by subscribing for their Book Club Membership. For further details read my review at http://www.mouthshut.com/review/Indiaplaza.in-133406-1.html Stay away from Indiaplaza.in at all costs!!! I absolutely hate Indiaplaza.in too.

And I did not disrespect Pietersen. Even if it was the Don on 399 against India, I would have prayed that he fell on the next ball. And I think your anger worked. Raikkonen retired in the race, Alonso beat Massa and Sachin was given a pathetic decision by that stupid Steve Bucknor. @Ankit I had written a strongly worded email to Indiaplaza for not responding to calls on Saturday. I have gotten a reply with mailing details, saying the book would reach latest by Tuesday, but that does not make up for the delay. But I guess I can wait for another day. @Ojas My bad - too much faith on technology. @Akanksha

You could've walked into landmark/spencers and ordered a copy there. They have faster delivery, and lots of free gifts for early birds. Anyway, all the best to you brother.. lets hope you get the book very soon. any need to order online! You could’ve walked into landmark/spencers and ordered a copy there.
