SellBackBooks

I am brand new to this site but I am seeking help in order to sell the MANY books I have accumulated through my many years as a Nutritional Consultant. The subjects are many food remedies, nattural cures. Pain relief, proper diets for various conditions like hypertension, diabetes, overweight etc. l I spent a fortune for the many years I was in practice, I am now retired... and I do not want to discard my books but hopefully sell them for fair prices. I am hoping the sitejabber site will be of help to me as well as to the book buyers who will do very well with my books

This site has to be fraud! They never paid me for one of my books which they were supposed to pay me big bucks for it. I sent them 2 books one that they paid me $7 dollars for they paid me, but the other they said they had to send it to the publisher to verify authenticity. I bought this book from my college store! Never heard from them again. I sent emails they do not respond and the book disappeared. I called they said that there was a problem with their system and they were let processing the payments and asked me to put this review online that would make them go faster

I didn't realize they were the same company as ecampus. If you sell books to them, expect to receive nothing from them but this message:

We are contacting you in regard to your SellBackBooks.com buyback transaction number #xxxxxx. The publisher(s) xxxxx is requiring a verification process to confirm the item is authentic. As a result, payment of this transaction is being delayed and, pending the publisher verification, could be denied. If payment is denied, the item in question will be quarantined indefinitely by the publisher. If the item is cleared by the publisher, then payment processing of your transaction will resume. At this time, we are uncertain when the verification process will be complete.

How are any of us supposed to know if a book is not original and how are se supposed to believe ecampus/sellbackbooks is telling the truth? How is is possible that they are sending all of these books to the publisher for verification? That is highly unlikely. Sad that they don't have one good review. This is why.

I sent them two textbooks in one package. One was checked in & I was paid for it. The other book was not. I have emailed them multiple times with no response after the first time, telling me to wait. They essentially stole one of my books. Avoid at all costs unless you want to be stolen from.

Like others, I sent book and never received payment for them. I have been selling for years to other companies without incident. This company claims to need "verification" from the publisher and the book will be "quarantined by the publisher if it's authenticity cannot be verified. They are uncertain if the verification process will be completed and you will not be paid until it is... HUH? A publisher doesn't expend the effort to verify and "quarantine" a book they have NO financial interest in. This is crazy nonsense and jargon for "we are stealing your book and not paying you for it."

I did a few different book buyback programs, and this is by far the worst. I was told that my payment had been issued to my Paypal account, but it wasn't. So I called and they said they put in a check request. A month has passed and I still do not have my money and they are zero help.

What book buyback doesn't offer a Search option in case the ISBN doesn't work? Talk about bomb crazy. Don't waste your time as there are other better, legit book buybacks like Book Scouter and Book Scouter.

I sent one book. They contacted me by email that they had to send it to the "publisher" as the publisher is requiring a verification process to confirm the item is authentic. (I bought it at the college bookstore brand new.) They continue: if the item is deemed inauthentic by the publisher, the item in question will be quarantined indefinitely by the publisher. YOU WILL NOT GET PAID! I called customer service... they gave me the same garbage. Chat gave me the same garbage. Asked for a manager, they said one would call in 24 hours. NOPE. These are scam artists getting free books and preying on those that are just trying to make a little money on their used test-books.

I sent them a book and then got an email stating they needed verification from the publisher proving it was authentic. Never heard from them again and never received my money.

They claim you sent them the wrong isbn, and then say if you dont get back to them in a few days they keep it. Companies that prey on students are the lowest scum of the earth. As many others said this company should be investigated for fraud.

I sent Sellbackbooks five different books. The first they paid but slowly. The second they said it was not a real copy and wanted $10.00 to send it back. The next to orders they did finnally pay after I clled and emailed many times. Now the last order they have had since 3-17-19 and it is now 7-4-19. They are no longer responding to my emails and I am haveing trouble getting them on the phone. Not sure if I'll ever get paid or get my books back. Beware this company!

Is that possible to give a 0-star review? They do not response to your emails. They told you your address is wrong so the check has been returned twice. They do not have a tracking number of the returned mail. Do not send your books to them!

Their confirmation email stated my books had been processed in 2 to 3 weeks. After 4 weeks I emailed and emailed again a week later still have not heard from them.

I recently sold this company a book. I was told once the book got received that a payment would be issued to me in my account. I received confirmation from UPS that the book was delivered and checked in. I have tried several times to contact them through email since they don't list a number for them and I have yet to get any kind of response. I feel that this very poor business and will never do business with them again, and I don't encourage anyone else to do do business with them either.

They are TOP RANK COLLEGE STUDENT RIP OFF SCAM COMPANY.
This COMPANY SHOULD BE INVESTIGATED BY FEDERAL BREAU, THEY TAKE BOOKS AND DON'T PAY! OR SAYING 0 VALUE ON BOOKS.

PLEASE PASS ON TO YOUR COLLEGE FRIENDS.!

This company is part of a network of online scams! This company operates under 5 different names and rents books it does not have. When buying books, they falsely downgrade the condition to pay you less and then pay slowly or not at all.

DON'T SELL YOUR BOOKS TO THIS SITE. THEY OPENLY FLAUNT THE FACT THAT THEY WILL TAKE 84 DAYS... NOT INCLUDING SHIPPING... TO PAY YOU IF THEY DO AT ALL.
Their explanation:
"Thank you for contacting customer service.
Your package may have been delivered but at this time your buyback has not been checked in for processing. Please allow up to 30 business days for your order to be checked in. Once it is checked in, it will take up to 6 weeks to process and have your payment issued. "

To which I replied and never heard back from them:

So just to be clear... step 3 of your simple three step selling process entitled "SPEND- Get paid fast with our Direct Deposit option!"... takes 84 days not including shipping (30 "business" days + six weeks)?

The company offered to purchase some used books and had given me a buyback offer. I shipped the books using their shipping label and have received proof that the books were delivered to them. But the company did not pay me for the books. They have also not answered any of my many attemps to contact them.
