Do not recommend
October 21, 2024

Experience was really bad. I was paid half of the offer. Most of my items were like new the others in very good condition, Books run marked most of them in "acceptable" condition and therefore did not pay or lowered the amount substantially. They offered $0.00 for at least 10 of my items stating they were unacceptable. Return shipping is $8 for the first item and $3 for each addition one. Very disheartening to see this. I took great care of my items. Sold because of a move and could not bring majority of my things. Any microscopic cosmetic issues will be labeled as an item that cannot be paid for. First time trying this site. I do not recommend nor I'm I using them again. The photos included are photos they sent as to why they were unacceptable.

First time ordering with BooksRun
October 21, 2024

BooksRun had the volume I wanted and ordered. In addition to a great price, when it arrived it was a new book, as it if it had never even been opened. Pristine copy. I will order from RooksRun again.

Easy, should have done it sooner!
October 21, 2024

The complete experience of selling these old textbooks was very easy. I should've done it sooner. I would probably have gotten more money.
