Instructions

Once you have registered, using txtbux is easy.

1. Find a book
This could be in a book shop, library, or at a friend's house. Anywhere you want to check the price, or don't have a pen and paper to write down its details. Locate the ISBN number - this is a unique 10 digit number found just above the barcode.

2. Text us
Example phone screenCompose a text message to us on your mobile phone with the word txtbux followed by the ISBN number of the book (you can miss out any punctuation or spaces).

For example, to check the prices of the latest Harry Potter book, which has an ISBN of 0747551006, you would send a text message containing:

txtbux 0747551006

to 07766 40 41 42 (you might want to add this to your mobile phone's memory).

Hint 1: To enter numbers more easily, hold the # key for 2 seconds (Nokia)

Hint 2: To save time, you can enter 'tb' instead of 'txtbux' - e.g. 'tb 0747551006'

3. Wait
We will automatically check the price and availability of the book - it usually takes about 15 seconds. We will then text you back with the details of the book. You can then choose whether you want to buy it there and then, or buy online. We will also send an e-mail to you, containing a link to buy online.

4. Visit www.txtbux.co.uk
A list of all the books you have enquired about will be waiting for you next time you visit www.txtbux.co.uk - just click on the 'Recent books' tab. If you decide to buy the book from Amazon, please use the links provided - it means we get paid a commission to enable us to keep the site free.
