PLEASE SUPPORT AUSTRALIAN BOOKSELLERS.

Catalogue
The very small (4,000 titles) Catalogue featured on this website is necessarily only a limited selection of the over 400,000 books that we currently have in stock in our warehouse and retail branches.
Our website search engine will therefore only search the titles in our website database, not our retail stock. If you are looking for specific titles, we encourage you to register and contact us with your Wants Lists.
Because Elizabeth’s Bookshops are essentially hands-on, "bricks and mortar" retail booksellers rather than website dealers, our internet presence is still quite modest. We encourage you to visit our 6 shops to see our full range of books.
WE ALWAYS DISPATCH TO YOU WITHIN 24 HOURS!
AUSTRALIA POST RED PARCEL: 5 - 10 BUSINESS DAYS. EXPRESS POST: 1 - 4 BUSINESS DAYS
ELIMINATE POSTAGE COSTS BY COLLECTING IT YOURSELF!
YOUR ORDER WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR COLLECTION IMMEDIATELY AT ELIZABETH'S WAREHOUSE BOOKHOP
(23 Queen Victoria Street, Fremantle WA ph 08 9433 3236. 7 days 9:00 am - 5:00 pm)
Just hit the "Click & Collect" button when you order an item.
Orders can also be collected from any Elizabeth's Bookshop branch. However, in WA it may take 2 days to get there and in NSW it can take up to 4 weeks.

When you browse a category, you can choose to view as few as 12 titles per page to as many as 100 titles (or even ALL titles) in the category. In some of our larger categories (e.g. Australiana, Fiction, Children’s Books, etc.) that saves a lot of ‘page by page’ clicking!

BLIND DATE WITH A BOOK
Elizabeth's Bookshops:
Home of the Original Blind Date with a Book
A hand wrapped book, carefully curated from a wide range of popular genres. Tagged with intriguing clues alluding to the mystery title inside. It’s a puzzle, it’s a present! Blind Date with a Book - Don’t judge a book by its cover.
A wide range of Blind Dates are available at all Elizabeth's Bookshop branches in Australia (Perth, Fremantle, Newtown).
However, this particular title may not necessarily be available at all branches.
So if you specifically want this title, you need to order it online to have it delivered to your door or sent as a present ($ 9.90 in Australia) or ClicK & Collect at a branch.
For our extensive international range (out of the UK, so postage will take a little longer), go to blinddatewithabook.com
If you are in Britain, our Blind Date with a Book is available for £7.99 from Waitrose.
