Hey, I'm doing this out od thee goodness of my heart. Don't tell me how much I have to write. In fact, your doing so strikes me as sort of insane.

I was very pleased when I received my used copy, but I was really surprised to find the code for the online version had not been used. I will be shopping at BooksRun in the future.

Decent
May 17, 2024

I paid $80 for a textbook to find that I didnt need after I dropped out of a class, It was unused and in perfect condition. I got half back $40. I was happy with the outcome as far as that goes.

The book I ordered was listed as "very good', but I thought it was "like new"! One of the fastest book shippers, also.

Why put a sticker on the book?
May 9, 2024

This is a somewhat expensive photography book. I have to question the decision to apply a sticker, which has left a significant amount of residue, to the dust jacket.

Book was delivered quickly.

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

Good product, good packaging
May 7, 2024

The book I bought is a beauty (A Child Through Time) and I'm excited to give it to my granddaughter for her 12th birthday. AND it was packaged in paper and cardboard only - no plastic, hooray! And THANK YOU.

Great experience!
May 7, 2024

It was an easy process! They sent me the label, I printed it out, wrapped my books and put them in a box, and shipped them and in about 22 days I had my money,,, it was a check by mail. They gave me what they quoted me with no hassles:-)
