Book received damaged
June 15, 2024

Update - the business reached out to me to offer a discount to compensate for the damaged book. I do appreciate that, and i believe this was a shipping issue not a fault of the company - however, had they used a box to ship the book, rather than a bag with no protection like bubble wrap; i believe this would not have happened. I also think this is an issue that someone else might also encounter going forward if books are shipped only in a thin plastic bag for shipping

Purchased an almost $90 out of print book. Was shipped in a thin bag with no bubble wrap or protection. Packaged arrived ripped open and book damaged. Extremely disappointed.

When I first purchased my order from BOOKSRUN I thought my order would take long but it arrived very conveniently and my order wasn't damaged a little scratch but all in all glad to have ordered from BOOKSRUN.

Best ABEBooks service yet!
June 15, 2024

Needed a book asap for our next bookclub selection and Book Run was the fastest delivery of a used book thru ABEBooks yet. I'll look for Book Run again for future orders.

Great prices for books

Blue Mind
June 15, 2024

Blue Mind is a must read! It is an interesting compilation of research over the past decade and more. The content is a reminder that water is the powerful ground of our being, of all life for that matter. It heals, relaxes, and must be safeguarded.
