How quickly did Rakuten deliver your Kobo?
Next day delivery - though they promised 7 to 10 days and their online tracking is useless and is still showing Dispatch Planned for me a couple of weeks later.

There have been bad experiences reported on here with Kobo telephone support, but I have only used them once and they replaced my 1.3/4 year old Forma without question and by next day delivery (again promising only 7 to 10 days. They seem to promise that then deliver next day). My wife is still using it. They didn't even want the old one back.

So I'd be happy to buy from them again.
The £20 off Libra 2 offer is no more, but I'm very happy with my white one and glad I bought it Best reader I've had.

ps I always use Forefront shell cases available from Amazon https://www.amazon.co.uk/Forefront-C...ps%2C51&sr=8-2
Very light, sturdy and sleep/wake on close and open
