They lost my books and did not compensate me.
June 20, 2023

Be wary of using their service. I was simply looking to make some extra money from selling my used books. However, they lost 2 of my books and refused to compensate me for them. I was also displeased with the other two books that they did purchase, as they ended up paying me less than the quoted amount despite the fact that the books were in like-new condition. SELLERS BEWARE.

Great book rental service
May 20, 2023

I was surprised at how easy the entire process was. The rental books arrived in great condition (I swear I'm the first person to open/use a few of them!). The books were delivered in a timely manner and everything was very reasonably priced.

EASY MONEY EVER MADE!
May 19, 2023

I couldn't be happier with the choosing of Your Company to sell my book. I almost didn't have to do anything more than to take my label from and on my phone to the Post Office! That was it! I got paid! I WILL BE USING YOU ALL FROM NOW ON AND ILL TELL EVERYBODY I KNOW!
