On 9/10/21, I ordered a book ("Letters from *******" / Order #*********) from "Irish Booksellers" off of the web-site "AbeBooks". The book was advertised to sell for $8.80, with shipping at $16.77, for a total of $25.57, plus tax. Three days after I placed my order, on 9/16/21, I was sent an email from AbeBooks stating that "Irish Booksellers" is requesting an additional $59.00 for the book, with the bookseller's comments stating the reason as: "Extra Charges". How is this even ethical? I purchased the book with my credit card in good faith and "Irish Booksellers" is now stating they want more money for a book that they advertised to sell for $8.80?! This is totally unethical! And from all of the complaints that this bookstore has with the BBB, someone should be investigating them because "Irish Booksellers" has bad business practices and should be held accountable for that. I did cancel my order and refused to pay the "extra charge" of $59.
