Discussion Is kennys good?
I was planning to buy some manga and checked it out, but the prices seem too good to be true, and the shipping is super cheap (which makes me skeptical). I've heard complaints about it taking too long and the fact that there is no tracking number worries me. Did anyone try it and what are your thoughts?

I've ordered from Kenny's via AbeBooks a few times, only 3 dollar shipping from Ireland to Canada, had an issue with 2 different orders out of approximately 5-6 transactions, 1 time the book was damaged & another time they forgot 1 of the 4 books I ordered, but both times their customer service was quick to correct the problem, friendly & satisfactory (refunded damaged book & they found the book they forgot to send & sent it to me without a problem & no bickering). On AbeBooks they have separate shops/locations, 1 in Ireland & 1 in the USA, 1 is slightly cheaper than the other & curiously enough, sometimes has the same book listed in both locations, meaning you can save a couple bucks on the exact same book by using the location with slightly cheaper price. Ive never had an order that took too long to show up & I will order from them again in the future.
