February 22, 2024

I ordered several books through Abe - don't know which one came from Booksrun but all the books were in good condition and arrived quickly. If you survey included the book I ordered I could be more speific.

BooksRun
March 1, 2024

My experience with Books Run was overall very positive they paid the amount they said they would pay. However, out of the approximately 600 books I have, they only took about 75. All of the books are in like new condition, but they were just not accepted. Also, it's easy to get locked out of the website if you try to enter too many books in one sitting and it is somewhat time consuming and rather disappointing that they didn't take more books.

Just do it!
February 20, 2024

This was the easiest way to clear some shelf place and make a little money. I was surprised because it had been a few years since I'd used the textbooks so I thought they wouldn't have any value. The bid was accurate, the process was easy, and the payment was quick.
