I feel like I just hit purchase and the book showed up on my doorstep. Very fast delivery, book was in perfect condition. Will shop here again.
The book's condition was accurately described, and appropriately priced. The delivery went smoothly and promptly.
Thanks for such an excellent review! We are so glad to see that you are satisfied with your order! - BooksRun Team
Ordered several books via AbeBooks.com. Onyx Storm was from BooksRun. Book was delivered expeditiously and the book was in very good condition.
We are glad to hear that you are happy with the item received! - BooksRun Team
Prior to using BooksRun I read the reviews and made sure to follow the return instructions completely. I searched a variety of book return sites and this seemed to be the best. I had several college books that I turned in and found the process very simple. The payment matched what I was quoted and everything was completed very timely. I would use BooksRun again.
Thank you for sharing your positive experience! Already looking forward to doing business with you again! - BooksRun Team
This book is the second in a trilogy (I had purchased the first new on recommendation from a smart reader). It arrived in good time in lovely condition.
Thank you BooksRun!

I'm a first-time BooksRun user and am very happy with my purchase. My used book was in excellent condition and arrived quickly! Thanks BooksRun!

Got the book I was hunting for in great condition, at a reasonable price, and received in record time.
We are happy to hear that you liked the item as well as our services! - BooksRun Team
Very satisfied overall. The padded mailer the books arrived in was torn open a bit in several spots upon receipt but other than that it was very easy to order and return the books my son needed.
Thanks for your cooperation with us! We value your opinion regarding our services and hope to see you among our customers more in the future! - BooksRun Team
The book arrived a few days after my order and was in very good condition. Excellent value and service.

Shipping was fine. Most importantly, the used textbook I ordered was in sad condition. Worse condition than described. It is still usable but was overpriced. Had I known the condition, I would have selected a different copy of the text elsewhere

Arrived with bumped corners due to the nonprotection of its poly mailer. I'd gladly pay a shipping cost to offset at least minimal packaging…

I operate an air b&b and this book is so appreciated by my guest that one of them kept it. I needed a replacement and you came through.

BooksRun is a great vendor for book buying! I've gotten excellent deals and the books arrive as-described! It's such a relief to have an online alternative to Amazon when it comes to purchasing print books.
Thank you for your amazing review! We are doing our best to keep our customers happy! - BooksRun Team
I'm very please. Books the school requires for independent are very rarely available at the library. Now that my kids annotate I need to own the book. BooksRun had it and got it to me sooner than I expected. They are one of the top 3 that I always reach out to. Never disappointed. Beth

I was very happy with the price of the used book I ordered, and it arrived in a timely manner. I would gladly order from BooksRun again.
That’s so nice that you are pleased with the order received! Thanks for the review! - BooksRun Team
I found some books I was interested in, I ordered them, and I received them in a perfectly acceptable amount of time.

I recently sold approximately nine of my school textbooks to Booksrun. After comparing several companies online, Booksrun stood out by offering the highest payout. Although I was initially skeptical, I decided to give them a try and shipped the books in a securely sealed box. Throughout the process, I received timely tracking updates and clear communication about when I would be paid. Just a few days after mailing the books, I received a check as promised. The entire experience was efficient, trustworthy, and hassle-free. If I have more books to sell in the future, I'll definitely be using Booksrun again- and I highly recommend them to anyone looking to sell their textbooks quickly and for a great price.
Thanks for leaving such an excellent review regarding our services! Hope to work with you more! - BooksRun Team
Never received the order as of date, sent email checking on order, no response to date. Will not order anything from booksrun again. I will be reporting this transaction to my credit card company, for refund, nothing else to write to get to 50 words

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
