Totally Reliable Seller
February 25, 2024
Updated review

I have purchased several books recently. All of them arrived as described or even better.
Always carefully packaged. Rely on this Seller online, or visit in Philadelphia!

I have been contacted multiple times to give a review of my experience. Why?
I contacted BooksRun about my item and received NO REPLY.
Look it up and leave me alone!

No joy
March 4, 2024

Canceled my order repeatedly due to unspecified "security concerns" with my credit card - tried 3 different cards, 3 different email addresses and even tried to complete the order while on the phone real time with customer service. Asked customer service to place the order for me and that's not possible for unclear reason. Very unhappy with this waste of my time and inability to complete my purchase.

Easy process
February 23, 2024

I wanted to sell a textbook I didn't want. I was quickly able to get a price quote and a mailing label. I printed it, shipped it, and had my money not too long after that. I think it was about a week. I will definitely use again to sell books.
