TOP 10 best online bookstores

10 Biblio Globus

The site is a platform for the sale of books in the Internet space, tied to the well-known retail chain "Biblio-Globus". The trading house of the same name was founded in 1957, is located in the historical center of Moscow and is one of the most revered objects of its category.

The Biblio-Globus online store provides its visitors with services for the purchase of books, stationery, souvenirs, antiques, business accessories and goods for creativity. The site is quite colorful and understandable, each item has an exhaustive description (up to the weight of the edition in grams) and annotation.

From what distinguishes this online bookstore from similar ones, we can highlight:

• a large selection of educational and methodological literature - here you will find a complete set of school textbooks from first to last grade;
• the opportunity to pick up beautifully designed books on art;
• very simple and clear website design;
• coverage of the most interesting and significant events in the field of literature.

Biblio-Globus does not provide special discounts, however, the pricing policy and a large assortment make it easy to find an essay of interest to the buyer at a completely democratic cost.

9 White City

The online bookstore "Bely Gorod" presents for sale the products of the publishing house of the same name, the priority direction of which is the publication of literature for spiritual enlightenment and cultural growth. Here you will not find bloody detectives or third-rate "ladies'" novels. But on the site there is an abundance of smartly designed art almanacs, informative illustrated books for children and collectible gift editions.

The White City website is worth a visit if you:

• respect and appreciate cultural traditions in literature;
• want to buy an original and presentable gift for a loved one, colleague or manager;
• you want to instill aesthetic values ​​in your child from a very young age;
• look for unique and rare manuscripts in excellent design.

The disadvantages of the online store include rather modest delivery options (only Moscow and the region, other regions by agreement) and a very meager choice of payment methods for goods.

8 Blagovest

A huge selection of spiritual prose and poetry, calendars, church utensils and themed gifts.The Blagovest store provides its subscribers with the opportunity to buy books in retail and wholesale (from 5,000 pieces), sells paintings, Orthodox icons, and even natural health products.

The interface of the publisher's site is quite simple and concise, designed without excessive expressiveness and does not distract visitors' attention with intrusive advertising. In addition, in the store:

• there are special offers for monasteries, churches, theological seminaries, orphanages and boarding schools;
• there is a savings system that allows you to save from 7 to 30% of the total purchase amount;
• you can buy a discounted product with minor defects.

Unfortunately, this online store does not provide free delivery to the regions of the Russian Federation, regardless of the number of books purchased. Although within Moscow and Moscow Region, this service is provided with a purchase of 2,500 rubles or more.

7 Republic

Respublika chain of bookstores is a fundamentally new approach to the sale of printed products, which includes a verified assortment, high quality service and attention to each customer both offline and online. At least that's what the developers tell us. What do we see in reality?

• original souvenirs and decorations;
• a simple and convenient interface that allows you to find the product of interest to the buyer in a few clicks;

6 Book24

The online bookstore Book24 is aimed at lovers of “relaxed” literature. Here you will find a huge selection of detectives, science fiction, romance novels and bright, picturesque publications for children. Although there are also narrowly focused publications, for example, on jurisprudence and law. The design of the site does not differ in a special design approach - on the main page you can see the covers of the books offered, the navigation is simple and clear. Immediately upon registration, the company gives 500 bonuses, which can then be used to receive discounts on goods.

Store employees promise:

• fast and inexpensive delivery;
• quality packaging;

• convenient delivery and payment - the parcel can be ordered directly or received independently in the network of stores cooperating with Bukvoed (the list with addresses is posted on the website);
