Norden Travel currently specialise in maps, travel and walking guides. The parent business, DTBS, has been established for over 20 years, starting with computer software for the Commodore range of home computers. We then moved into computer books, importing these from the USA where prices were much lower than those charged by UK book distributors. This allowed us to sell at well below shop prices at a time when the Net Book Agreement discouraged discounting in the book trade.
Many people will have bought from our stalls at numerous computer fairs throughout the UK.
In recent years the price differential between the UK and USA has largely disappeared, discounts are easier to find, and the cost of posting heavy books makes mail order selling unprofitable. Therefore we sell relatively few computer books these days, though we do still have stocks of some hard to find books on Amiga, Atari and Commodore-64 computers.
In addition to selling on Ebay and Amazon Marketplace (trading name DT_Books, we are setting up several websites with links to both Ebay and Amazon so that buyers can find the cheapest prices for maps and travel guides and are not confined to items that we stock ourselves.
We also deal in timeshare resales including Sunterra points and can offer advice to both buyers and sellers. Avoid at all costs the many con-men that infest this industry and if you are thinking of buying then check out what's on offer on Ebay before paying the high prices of the marketing companies that cold call you offering "free" holidays or the scratch card touts that you will ancounter on holiday abroad. Do not become a victim of the rougues that offer you an unexpectedly high price for your timeshare week but demand a large up-front fee and do not fall for the "holiday club" scammers who try to talk you into trading in your timeshare weeks and/or paying out several thousand pounds for promises that never materialise.
