About Us

Bandits Bookshop is a passion project founded by Laura Douglas—and co-run by her cat and mascot, Bandit—in 2024. Based in Melbourne, Australia, we offer a curated selection of unique and rare books across photography, art, fashion, design, and counterculture.

What began as selling my personal book collection online has evolved into a pursuit of out-of-print and hard-to-find treasures. Bandits Bookshop is the store I always wished existed—a celebration of bold ideas, creativity, and culture, with plans to stock new releases soon.
