I found this company online. I had a lot of books to get rid of. I downloaded the app and it was so easy! I just scanned the isbn number with my phone and it would tell me if you were buying that book and how much you would pay. I sold 9 or 10 books that fit in one box. Shipping was free. It took a little while to get my check but I finally did. This was awesome!
I have both ordered through Amazon and directly, as well as sold back to BooksRun once. Every time the items have been just as described and there have been no issues with shipping or getting paid for the item sold.
We are glad you’ve had a positive experience in doing business with us, Alejandra! - BooksRun Team
At the check out page there is a tab to chose insurance for your package. For my last two orders I have declined this option because my total was so small. I was deducted insurance on both orders anyway. This may be my last transaction.
UPDATE: issue was resolved through customer service quickly. Please fix insurance option tab.

Quick delivery. Books in good condition. Why do I have to write at least 50 words?
BooksRun filled my order promptly and efficiently. The product sent matched their description and arrived timely.
AbeBooks is my go-to site for (used) books. This was my first time ordering from BooksRun and I couldn't be more pleased with the quality of the book I received and the service you provided. I will make it a point to look for BooksRun offerings in the future. I'm happy to have found you!
My book came even quicker than I expected. I was very happy with the entire experience.
Received the payment amount I expected within a week or so. No issues at all, would use this site again.
I couldn't find this book anywhere until Abebooks.com. The book was used and in great condition, as advertised. I'll buy from BooksRun again.
My book came in time and was in good condition. I have used this service before and never had any issue.
The website was easy to use, transaction was simple, the check came quickly, just would have liked to have been paid more for the books.

Or, you may use our BooksRun app where the barcodes may be scanned properly, and thus, quotes will be identified. We do provide prepaid shipping labels for buyback orders. Please follow the instructions carefully to ship books to us for the payout. For more clarification, please do not hesitate to contact us promptly for assistance. We are always here for you. Warm regards, 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
Answer: Dear Taylor, for our buyback orders, we have two methods of payment: by check or via PayPal. Best regards, Booksrun Team
