I'm so pumped to have snagged this awesome book for my collection, eh? I bought it back in January right after my trip to Berlin. The book is chock-full of amazing pictures and cool stories about the city. It's a must-have for all you Berlin fans out there or for anyone thinking about checking out the city, no doubt about it.

I was so happy when my books arrived so quickly and in perfect condition. They were packaged really well and arrived right on time. I would definitely recommend buying from this store again because I'm going to keep adding to my library from their website.

Books on tattoos

The books on tattoos are amazing, I really suggest checking them out. But there's a problem with how they were packaged at the store that needs to be fixed. When they arrived, the corners were all crushed, the pages were bent, and the covers were scratched. It was pretty disappointing. I got "1000 Tattoos" and "Tattoo 1730s-1970s" and both of them were messed up because of the bad packaging.

I recently bought some books from this store and even though the books were great, I was disappointed with the overall experience. I gave all my info for the order including my name, address, phone number, and postal code, but when the parcels arrived 25 days later, they only had my name and postal code. It felt like they got lost with no real tracking available, and almost got sent back to Germany. Luckily, I managed to get in touch with DHL Hellas and gave them the missing info to keep the parcels in Greece. I hope Taschen and Deutsche Post can fix this problem quickly for a more reliable delivery service in the future, so customers like me can trust ordering from them again.

Taschen is seriously the best spot to grab books with all those awesome pictures! They've got so many different topics to choose from, and their website makes it super easy to find what you're looking for. I've ordered from them a bunch of times and the books always show up in perfect shape. The shipping isn't lightning fast, but hey, it's free if you spend a certain amount. And the way they pack everything up is so thorough, I've never had a single issue.

Book and magazine order

I got a book from here the other day, and they also sent me a magazine catalog. But, for some reason, the magazine and the book showed up on different days. It was really stressful because I thought maybe my expensive book got lost in the mail. The tracking info was all over the place, saying everything had been delivered when only the magazine came. It was a total headache and unnecessary stress, especially for something so pricey. They should really just ship everything together to avoid this kind of mix-up.

I just bought some art books from this store recently. I really like the great quality and cool content that Taschen has. They have a big selection of books that always makes me want to go back for more. But, gotta be honest, the customer service was kinda blah. The staff seemed like robots, not caring at all, which made me feel unimportant as a customer. Even so, I still buy Taschen books from other stores that treat me better.

My experience buying books was great! The books were so good, the packaging was nice, and they arrived really quickly. I was totally happy with my order. The only thing is, I didn't see an estimated delivery date in any of the emails. It was my first time ordering from them, but I'd definitely suggest them to others.

The customer service was alright, nothing too special. The delivery came on time, but the packaging was a little flimsy for how pricey the purchase was. The print quality of the book was pretty good, but the price was on the higher side compared to other books I've bought in the past.

I just bought an art book from this store and I was really let down with how the delivery went. Even though I paid for shipping, my package ended up at a pick-up spot without me knowing. It was a hassle and my order could've been messed up. I think there should be a way to reschedule delivery or call a specific number if you're not home. Stuff like this can totally ruin how you see the company and your experience as a customer.

Julian Schnabel book

I recently picked up the Julian Schnabel book from this shop and let me tell you, it's absolutely amazing. I collect all sorts of art books, and this one really stands out for its top-notch quality and interesting content. The book itself is quite large and eye-catching, just like Schnabel's own art, so it's a real gem in my collection. I checked out their store in Beverly Hills and was blown away by the variety they have. If my suitcase could fit more, I would have bought a bunch more books. I'm excited to see what else this store comes out with in the future, hopefully something on Cy Twombly that's just as awesome as the Schnabel book.

I decided to take a risk and buy five books during the sale, even though I had seen some bad reviews about people getting used or damaged copies. But when my package arrived, I was pleasantly surprised to find all the books in perfect condition, brand new and still wrapped in plastic. It totally surpassed what I was expecting and made me super happy with my purchase. The books were high quality and I couldn't have had a better experience.

The Limited Edition books I bought were so amazing. The paper and printing quality were top-notch, and the content was really well written and interesting. There were a few small issues with shipping, but honestly, that's just life, so no big deal. Overall, I am super happy with my purchase. Even though it was a bit hard on the wallet, I couldn't pass up the chance to get them at a discount.

So, I ordered some really cool stuff online and it seriously took forever to get to my house. Like, a whole 16 days! And when it finally arrived, one of the thingamajigs was totally messed up. The pages were all busted on both sides near the middle. Not cool at all, man.
