Never Recieved the Book
February 17, 2025

The book was lost in transit. Bookrun was very slow to respond and then wanted me to initiate a USPS search. They had the tracking number and required information. I feel it was their responsibility to track their shipment. The loss was never made right.

They stole my book!
April 10, 2025

Quoted me a price for a book, and then refused to pay once I sent them the book. Customer service has consistently played dumb and refuses to help me.
