Moonbokers Reviews Summary

The company has garnered significant negative feedback primarily due to misleading marketing practices that lead customers to believe they are purchasing physical books when, in fact, they are only receiving digital downloads. This lack of transparency has resulted in frustration over refund policies, as many customers report being denied refunds shortly after realizing their mistake. Additionally, the absence of responsive customer service further exacerbates dissatisfaction. While there are no notable positive aspects highlighted in the reviews, the overall sentiment reflects a strong recommendation for potential buyers to exercise caution before engaging with this vendor.

ONLY E-BOOK!
July 21, 2022

While this site has processing and shipping time for paperback & hard back books listed & they say on their "About Us" web page that you can find best selling hardcover paperback and e-books -- NONE OF THIS IS TRUE!
If you make a purchase you will be told to read the last line of the "Shipping Policy" that states that by ordering you are accepting their shipping policy.
Kiss your money good-bye & consider it the cost of not checking out a website before ordering.

Re-read the description of the book I ordered and it doesn't clearly state this is an audio book. I was led to believe this was a physical book with "free shipping".

The link from Google shopping said "Hardcover, Free shipping". Nowhere does the site say its a digital book, so I presumed Google shopping was accurate. NOPE! I got a downloadable book. Not what I wanted. I asked for a refund since it was their fault. Reached out 3x, offering more and more specificity, including screenshots of the discrepancy. Only form emails back, denying my refund

I paid for a book. Entered my address for shipping. They offered free shipping. Never received book. I then contacted them. Moonbokers said they sent me then book... via email. I have no emails from Moonbokers. None. More important I paid for a book. Not a eBook. The website and book description says nothing about eBooks. This website is a scam.

Scammers:
May 2, 2022

I ordered a book through this company on 1/28/22 and have yet to receive it! After trying in vain to contact them with no success, I have now read the reviews on this company and they are all bad! They all say they were under the impression that they were receiving an actual book but to find out is is an audio book. They have my money and I have no product. DO NOT ORDER ANYTHING FROM THIS COMPANY!

I was under the impression I would be receiving a book but instead I received an email with a download to read the book. AND the download expired within a few months. Do not buy!

Scam Download
March 3, 2022

Agree with all negative reviews. Only confirmed book was a PDF download after purchase. No way was I going to download a file from an "unknown" source. Fortunately purchased through PayPal and had charge reversed after submitting a complaint.

They are thefts, no where in their website they mention that the books are digital copies, they even ask for your shipping address for God's sake. And when you reach out to them they say this is our policy, we would not refund you. I am going to process my dispute through my credit card.

Moonbokers Fraud
December 20, 2021

I Quickly Found out after I purchased the popular book: The Dawn Of Everything, by David Graeber and David Wengrow, on the Moonbokers website that I was subjected to well planned fraud. I only wish that I had done further research before having submitted my credit card because I should have known that, 'Something to good to be true, as the old adage goes...' The Moonbokers site advertises the book for an unbelievably low price of $10. No where in the order process on the misleading pages that follow asking for shipping information and even confirming that they offer free shipping, does the company mention that you are paying for a supposed digital download rather than a hard copy as you are misled to believe! After stupidly paying, however, at least I refused to download the book in an effort to give the company a chance to do the right thing- in the faint hope that in fact I had not just been scammed. Although I pointed out that I had not downloaded the book, however, the company still refused in a politely worded email that they have a no refund policy.

This is not a hard copy book seller!
December 8, 2021

No where on the website did it say it was a download book. I immediately asked to cancel and they refused. I hate that I did not research the company before the purchase.

Scam! 0 stars!
November 29, 2021

I googles a certain book as a Christmas gift a few days ago and this offer came up with a competitive price! Nowhere did it mention it was an E -book or pdf version. It said "free shipping". As I was checking again for shipping times I realized I received an E book to download! I contacted the company and am referred to there no refund rule. Very disappointed!

Sad to see so many terrible reviews. Also on BBB. Like many others, I ordered a book months ago and never got it. I finally emailed customer service and they ignored my request and sent an ebook. I can't read ebooks and when I replied back they said all purchases were final. Ok well I didn't get what I ordered so I don't know. Will never order from here again.

SCAM
October 9, 2021

My experience is the SAME as most of the reviews. Nowhere on the site did they say it was a PDF. NOWHERE. I thought I was ordering a BOOK.
I'm going to investigate and make a complaint to the appropriate Attorney General.

BUYER BEWARE!
August 30, 2021

Please note, you are not buying a book (even though they make it seems as so)... you are buying a download. Don't make a mistake, you will be stuck with it no matter what because all sales are final (whether incorrect due to FALSE ADVERTISEMENT or not)! This company SUCKS! If I could give less than 1 start, I would!

Horrible costumer service
August 21, 2021

Horrible costumer service. If I could choose 0 stars I would. Doesn't even clearly state the books are PDFs. Just happened to stumble upon their website looking for a cheaper option for a paper/hardback book. After my purchase they sent me an email with a pdf attachment and only then is when I realized I made an awful mistake. $8 for a pdf?! That's ridiculous, can't even read it the fonts so small. What a waste. Never again.

You may be looking to find a used book. You find it online for a price of an obviously listed ebook and a hardcover edition. You see moonbokers advertise a hardcover with a price in between and you go for it, only to find out it's a download.
