The company has garnered a mixed reputation based on customer feedback. Positive aspects include prompt delivery, good product quality, and an efficient ordering process, which many customers appreciate. However, significant concerns arise regarding the handling of book conditions and return processes, with several customers alleging deceptive practices and poor customer support. Issues such as inadequate packaging and communication frustrations also surfaced. Overall, while many customers express satisfaction with their purchases, the company must address recurring complaints to enhance trust and customer experience.

Got it Fast
April 2, 2024

I was surprised at how quickly my book arrived. Usually, if I order from anywhere except Amazon, things take weeks to get here. My granddaughter received her book in less than a week. Thank you!

I purchased the wrong book, I contacted your company to find out view i can get the correct eText book, and no one has contacted me yet. This is not acceptable. I'm falling behind in my class work because I can read my chapters.

They deserve 5 stars
April 1, 2024

Best price for what I wanted and shipped quickly. Note on the back cover, a label was removed and it's sticky to the touch.

GRADUATE SCHOOL
April 1, 2024

I was extremely grateful that your company rushed me my textbook as ebooks don't work for me and the process was within my price range. Receiving the book quickly allowed me to keep up with my studies.

Fast and like new!
April 2, 2024

I ordered a few books at the same time and this one came the fastest easily and great condition as if it had just been sitting in a bookstore for a few months at worst.
However I do wish they put a slip in the bag instead of a sticker directly on the cover that i have to carefully take off.

I'm always happy
March 31, 2024

Everything was perfect until the book was stolen the day after I bought it! I'm going without for now until I can find another copy in my price range.

A ripped check
March 30, 2024

I got my check in the mail and the paper was already opened and ripped. I tried to salvage as much as I could but most of the check was ripped. The bank wouldn't even take my check.
