Jipped on expedited shipping
March 14, 2023

I paid for expedited shipping but did not receive as promised. My daughter had assignments due. We had to purchase a more expensive ebook in order for her to complete her assignments on time.

DON'T USE KNETBOOKS
April 8, 2023

I chose Knetbooks because it was cheaper than multiple websites. I purchased a book back end of February and have yet to receive the book. The shipping updates are unclear. They don't even have a phone number to call! I tried contacting live customer service, which helped find my order. The website says orders take 1-2 days to process and 6-10 days to ship. It only shipped a week after I placed the order. It will now be arriving after I start classes for my master's degree... Extremely dissatisfied and will never use Knetbooks again.

Good
February 23, 2023

Went right online and ordered. No issue. It was brought to me in about a week just in time for my course. I have rented many textbooks from y'all and the service is always great. Will continue to shop here.

Arrived in poor condition
January 29, 2023

The book that I rented came in poor condition as it was ripped up around the binding and bent at the top half. I believe that the packaging could be improved so the shipping and handling process won't obscure the quality of the book (the book definitely appeared to be new aside from these external damages). The overall website was easy to navigate (pretty user-friendly), and the payment process was relatively efficient.

Shipping scam
February 27, 2023

I bought two books and it only costed me like 60 bucks. Well I am now three weeks into college and my package tracking only says that shipping labels have been created but no item has been given. So for the past three weeks my books haven't even been sent out, now leaving me struggling with my college assignments because I don't have my textbooks. I was given an estimate that my books would be here at the latest on the 21st and they still haven't even been shipped. I was emailed a delivery confirmation on the 17th. I emailed the company with no reply still. I wouldn't recommend for students who receive their syllabus and need their textbooks quickly or even at all for that matter.

Easy peasy

I was able to find the exact book I needed, paid a quarter of the price I found elsewhere, and got the book as fast as an Amazon prime account.
