Books were fine but...
December 22, 2024

They were bought by me and sent as a gift. For some reason your company is sending emails, like this survey, to ME, the purchaser but addressed to the RECIPIENT.

Quick, easy, affordable
December 22, 2024

Easy ordering process, all instructions were simple and we received our orders quickly. The discounts helped us afford college books that we weren't going to be able to get. The return process was just as simple too! Highly recommend!
