The Book Ran Great
November 30, 2024

I love reading a review of an off-the-grid fantastic book, finding an online source for it, ordering it with ease and having it appear just a few days later, tightly, neatly packaged, without my need to use a fine tracking option. So it was with Booksrun! Thanks, I'll be back.

Left Book on Airplane
November 30, 2024

I was about to miss a flight connection and when I got to the front of the plane I realized I had left my Chinese textbook in the seat pocket! Not being able to fight the crowd to get back to it or wait until everyone had gotten off the plane to get it, I ran to my next flight and barely made it. As I sat waiting to take off on this next flight, I ordered another textbook from BooksRun. It was a great price, the book arrived in amazing condition, and I never missed a beat in my studies because it arrived very quickly! Great experience! Thank you!

Selling back
November 27, 2024

I was Corded to sell back my books. All of a sudden two books were "fraudulent" and my account was blocked. I was not given my books back. I have considered getting ahold of the better business bureau and reporting you.

BooksRun attempted to help this customer through the Sitejabber Resolution Center, but the customer did not respond
