They lost my books and did not compensate me.
June 20, 2023

Be wary of using their service. I was simply looking to make some extra money from selling my used books. However, they lost 2 of my books and refused to compensate me for them. I was also displeased with the other two books that they did purchase, as they ended up paying me less than the quoted amount despite the fact that the books were in like-new condition. SELLERS BEWARE.
