Zero customer service
September 3, 2023

I received a book in significantly worse condition than described. The poor packaging may have contributed to the damaged spine, but the numerous folded pages were obviously a pre-existing condition. I attempted to contact customer service three times about the issues but never received a response.

Fast delivery, good price
August 1, 2023

The book was in great shape, until I looked up my order for this survey, I forgot that it wasn't a brand new book. The price was good as well and it arrived in a timely fashion.

Not real happy with the offer
August 30, 2023

I bought the books originally for quite a bit, but was literally offered next to nothing for them. I wasn't real happy with the offer, but I was needing them gone. I will not be buying any more books, lesson learned.
