BOOKSELLER CELEBRATING 45 YEARS

On 2nd September 2019 our founder Roger Bernard Crossland will celebrate 45 years as a Bookseller. On that day in 1974 at the age of 16, he started working for W H Smith (Wholesale) Limited, at Wellington Bridge Industrial Estate, Leeds. He then went on to open his 1st Bookshop (with the help of his parents) in Garforth, Leeds, during May 1987. Although that Main Street Store has now closed, it remains to be run online successfully by him today. In 1999 Roger was the very first person in the world to sell Book Tokens via the internet and currently he and his partner, with their business The Token House Partnership, are the leading independent supplier of National Book Tokens and National Theatre Tokens, to businesses, schools, colleges and universities, plus the general public, across the globe. They constantly offer the consumer more free Book Token gift card designs than anywhere else online. Also most books are cheaper than Amazon, when paying in full online by credit card or debit card at their 'books etc' area within firstbookshop.com : Read 'Our Story' here -

These days however (unlike back then) your Bank or card provider may request an additional click with them, just to make sure that it really is you who's purchasing!

GARFORTH BOOKSHOP

Our Garforth Bookshop in Leeds, West Yorkshire, today known as BOOKSGB.CO.UK was the very first to price match with AMAZON.CO.UK in the year 2000.

Today it is an online only Bookshop.

However by cutting the overheads, particularly the high rents and rates on Garforth Main Street, now most books are cheaper than AMAZON.CO.UK, if paying in full by credit card or debit card!

If paying by Book Tokens, our price is usually the same as FOYLES.CO.UK

Talking about Book Tokens, our Garforth Bookshop was also the very first to sell and redeem Book Tokens online in 1999.

Now you know why these days we are better known as FIRST BOOKSHOP!
