The Times London: August 16, 2000, Wednesday, 'Web World' " www.firstbookshop.com This enterprising bookshop has gone online to provide Book Tokens - seemingly an Internet first. The tokens can be exchanged at over 3,000 bookshops in Britain and Ireland "

The Independent London: August 10, 2002, Saturday, FEATURES; WORLD WIDE WEB: 10 BEST SITES OF THE WEEK. www.firstbookshop.com " This is currently the "only bookshop to offer book tokens online" (the national book gift voucher scheme). Originally a small-town bookshop, it claims to be "beating the big boys at their own game", and while it doesn't quite match Amazon for size or quality of presentation, book fiends are bound to unearth something here that appeals "

Quote from the late Lady Antonia Fraser - Author

"I had a favourite aunt who always gave me a Book Token each year so that I began to count on it and select the book in advance in my imagination. I always remember my horror when she sent me a dozen handkerchiefs with a note saying she thought I was getting too old for Book Tokens! No one is ever too old for Book Tokens"

BOOK-TOKENS-ONLINE ORIGINAL WEBSITE

1st Bookshop ~ First For Book Tokens Online & That Was 1999!

National Book Tokens and Nationwide Theatre Tokens are the most cost effective way to send a gift to the UK from abroad. They are also ideal corporate gift vouchers. Delivery can be made direct from any address in the world, free to any address in England, Scotland, Wales or Ireland, with included presentation packaging and handwritten dedication if required.

For Global Voucher Deliveries (outside UK): We make a charge of £5 to send your order overseas insured and guaranteed, this means we are now able to send voucher orders throughout the world, with secure shipping charged to you below cost - most other Book & Theatre Token retailers are unable to do this. To choose this option please add the fee where indicated, then also enter the code 005 in the 'additional requests' box which can be found near the bottom of our secure ordering form

PLEASE NOTE: IF YOU WISH TO REDEEM A 'NATIONAL BOOK TOKEN' ON YOUR BOOK ORDER PLEASE USE THE ORDERING FORM LINKS LOCATED HERE If you opt to use the secure bankers card form (not for spending paper tokens) please fill in your token values and serial numbers where indicated, you can also use the box marked 'additional requests' at the bottom of that secure ordering form to relay any of your information, then along with all your other ordering details - including credit/debit card details for any further charge to be taken - please press submit and await our email confirmation. Always we will ask you to post your National Book Tokens Paper Vouchers direct to us at Token House, as these are now discontinued. If you are spending money from one of the new National Book Token Gifts Card, we will simply debit that card with the cost of your book(s) when they are ready to dispatch - there are no shipping fees within the British Isles. Please note however that books are sold to you at the cover price, as discounts do not apply to this kind of purchase.

We do not accept or provide the One Pound World Book Day Tokens online, as these are not genuine National Book Tokens. Also note that UK Book Tokens cannot be redeemed against purchases made online in the 'books etc' area as this is an affiliation.

To help reduce our company carbon footprint, the webhosting we use to get our bookshop online, operates with 100% wind turbine power.
