This seller has the best prices and the fastest delivery. Don't hesitate to buy from them. The whole process was a snap.
Well I hope it's a good book. I am very appreciative for the opportunity to purchase and read educational books.

The books I was selling ended up getting lost by USPS for almost a month. Booksrun never failed to reassure me and stay in touch during the frustration of not knowing where the $200 in books was. When they finally arrived booksrun was super quick to process my order! Thank y'all so much!

This is the only company that lies about your book condition so that they can get free books to sell. I will not sell to this company anymore due to this.
My book arrived promptly and was in excellent condition. Description was spot on. This was my first time ordering from this company and I would order again.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience! Already looking forward to doing business with you again! - BooksRun Team

Super quick and easy to order text books online. No standing in line was very nice and the book arrived quickly.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated, Lisa! We are glad to provide you with good services. - BooksRun Team
The pages came held together by strings. It wasn't actually a book, but it was a bunch of paper carelessly held together. It made my studying harder as I tried to not harm the pages.
Your feedback is greatly appreciated! Looks like you have ordered a loose-leaf item. Please contact us back with more details so that we could investigate. Thank you for your cooperation! - BooksRun Team
Paying my way through, price is all that matters. With these guys prices my bank account has some left over.
Ebook was made available immediately after the purchase through vitalsource. Receipt was also immediately sent to the email provided.
Thanks for the feedback! Hope to see you again doing business with us! - BooksRun Team
Once I bought an e-book in this company but I didn't receive any related information because of some technical faults. Then I chose to contact the support department and after two business days(It's the ordinary time which they estimate) they sent me an email about my problems and refunded my money. According to their advice, I tried paying once more and this time everything was fine. I'll browse for more e-books which I need on their website in the future.
Thank you for such amazing feedback, Thoth! We are happy to hear that our representative was able to resolve the case in the most satisfactory manner. Hope to see you again among our happy customers!- BooksRun Team
I made a good amount of money off of books I had laying around in my house. It took a little longer than I initially expected, but with COVID delays it wasn't out of the ordinary. If there were any issues with my books, I was notified and given the option to accept the new price or have it sent back to me. I'll definitely be using this site again in the future.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience, Christina! We are doing our best to keep our services high-quality even during such times! - BooksRun Team

Answer: Dear Peyton, thank you for contacting us. It appears that FedEx made an attempt to deliver to us outside of our working days/working hours. The redelivery request is usually submitted for either the next day or the first business day, thus, we look forward to receiving your package. We apologize for the inconvenience caused and do hope for your understanding of the matter at hand. Best regards, Booksrun Team
