Bookmobile

Dear Bookmobile, It has been nine years since we first met, and I still (still) love you and your work. ARCs? No problem. Rush turnaround? We can handle it. Samples? They're on the way. Can you tip in a special page? We can. Responsive. Cheerful. Professional. Reliable. Accommodating. And great prices. BookMobile...how do I love thee? Let me count the ways.

Here because of Zara s post too. Just bad business all around.

Bookmobile is genuinely one of the best companies that I ve ever worked with. This was my first time working in book creation, so I had many questions regarding different options for binding-materials, paper-stocks, foil-stamping, die-creation, etc. I tested out most of the popular POD services using their stock options for a single book print, but the quality was always lacking. I wanted to customize many of the details for a higher quality design. Their customer service representatives are among the most helpful and honest that I ve encountered. They quickly and thoroughly answered all of my questions about every option and provided multiple quotes so that I could easily compare the effect of different combinations on the cost. I never felt like they were trying to upsell any option. They were straightforward and honest about what would work and what may not work as hoped. They also provided stock samples and even an example book bound in the linen that I was considering. The quality of the books I ended up receiving were incredible and far exceeded every expectation. Every detail was consistent across every book and exactly as discussed and requested. They knew I was on a tight schedule, and the books even shipped out over a week earlier than was originally scheduled. I strongly feel that if book quality is a concern, this is the printer to go with.

Quoted me, I paid, then they changed the price and refused to acknowledge they d misquoted me, or to ethically resolve the issue - instead, blamed me for them misquoting me. This is unbelievably unethical customer service.

As a production editor, I have had the pleasure of working with Bookmobile both the print shop and the publisher services team frequently over the last ten years. The Bookmobile staff is knowledgeable, professional, and approachable not to mention a complete joy to work with. Rachel, Nicole, and Devin, who are my primary contacts, are always helpful problem-solvers, whether to help me determine the right materials or lamination for a print job or to work out an especially challenging project schedule. And they are honest about what is and isn't possible, given the timeline I have and my budget constraints. They deliver what they promise on time. I know my projects are in good hands at Bookmobile. I am so grateful to have them in my corner!

Acceptable work, extremely poor communications and customer service. Not recommended.

High quality customer service. Bookmobile is a great option for cartoonists looking for an affordable option to print their books.

This is the best place for self publishing needs. They are the best prices and put out amazing product

Bookmobile delivers such a great looking product and their customer service reps gave me amazing advice on how to make my book look its best. I wouldn t trust another printer to print my art properly. If you want the job done right, use Bookmobile.

I've worked with Bookmobile for years and they're terrific. High quality work and very responsive. Highly recommend.

Fast, efficient, great service. Ask for Sean. My book looks great!
