Book Buyback
May 11, 2023

Fair prices, fast payment. The labels BooksRun provide for shipping books to them sometimes are FedEx and sometimes USPS. I prefer FedEx - I do not like shipping via USPS.

Great way to sell your books!
May 11, 2023

BooksRun offered me a fair price for books I had recently read, emailed me a return post paid shipping which I placed on a box and mailed. Within five days I had a check! A great way to "recycle" my used books!

Poor communication
June 10, 2023

I sent an email within a couple of minutes of placing my order, online, explaining that I meant to have these books shipped to a different address. I talked with someone on the phone a few hours later, who told me that they had received my email and that there was still time to get the address corrected, and that someone would call me back. No one ever did, and, sure enough, the package was sent to the wrong address.
