Take photos of all your books!
January 18, 2023

TAKE PHOTOS OF ALL YOUR BOOKS WHEN RECEIVED. They provide used books, which are worn, but will turn around and charge you for the book as 'unusable' upon return. Since I could not prove they sent me the book worn, I had to buy it. So remember to take pictures when you get the books in, or you'll end up buying your books anyway.

Always a good experience with Knetbooks
December 11, 2022

4/5 books came brand new, for a fraction of the price of buying. I love that!

Scam
December 20, 2022

I sent the book off on the morning of Tuesday, Nov 15th with the prepaid label taped to the box. I received a message on Sunday, Nov 20th that the book had not been received. Hmmmm... considering it took the book 3 days to arrive I question the integrity here. I texted the company and was told I would receive a late charge (when and if it ever arrives). I think this is a strategy that is used to get more money out of people. I sent this book 5 and a half days ago! My time is too valuable to waste on this nonsense everytime I rent a book. I will be going with another company in the future. Thanks but no thanks. I don't appreciate being swindled.

Cheap Books...Fast Service
October 30, 2022

Better than some other sites... like VitalSource. I ordered from them, but the digital book did not appear in my account, and I ended up wasting time.

I could not find these books available on any other sites for rent, so I was excited to find them here…and at that price too! Just incredible! The two books have a slider cover that holds them together, and that was a little worn, but the actual books are in perfect condition! I was so pleased finding them, I expedited my order and will be ordering from here again!
