Great price, but YMMV
May 4, 2023

Upside: great inventory, great prices, swift delivery speed, and reason-to-wonderful shipping costs.
On the downside: They are willing to sell items (e.g. Access codes) that aren't necessarily functional anymore, even if the packaging has never been opened.
I'll keep using these folks, because they're great. Just remember that your mileage may vary.

Awesome
March 29, 2023

My order was processed right away. After purchasing it, it arrived within five business days. The book was in the same condition as described. The company used eco-friendly packaging, which I appreciated. I would be willing to do business with them again.

My order went smoothly and arrived sooner than initially projected. As far as my order of one textbook for a class, this was much cheaper and as reliable as buying new.
