    Sent an email to return an ebook got one response then they just never responded after that. Then, sent a second email to them and no response. They need to work on their customer service because as of right now, it is a complete joke.

    They sent me the wrong books for my classes so I immediately returned them the next day. They decided the most expensive book was "damaged" and refused to refund.

    Sent a book buyback in I paid A LOT for. They said Id receive $15. I sent it in a good fair condition. There was no bent pages, no stains, and no scuffed edges. I packed it in a box with air bubble wrap so it wouldn't move around. And when I got an email saying it arrivedthey labeled it as damaged. Which means I wont get any money for it. Its absolutely infuriating and I will NOT be using this service again. Its a rip off and a scam for every college student out there.

    I looked into your shipment and our receiving department noted that there was a small amount of water damage on the corner of the book. I have asked our pricing team to go ahead and pay out the buyback quoted amount of $15.00. The reason we do not purchase or resell water damaged books is because bacteria and mold can grow on them and we do not want to sell a customer a book in that condition. It's possible that it happened in transit, which is not within our scope of control, but we have decided to go ahead and pay you for the book. I want to assure you that we care very much about our customers and the quality of books they receive from us.
