The company has garnered significant negative feedback primarily due to misleading marketing practices that lead customers to believe they are purchasing physical books when, in fact, they are only receiving digital downloads. This lack of transparency has resulted in frustration over refund policies, as many customers report being denied refunds shortly after realizing their mistake. Additionally, the absence of responsive customer service further exacerbates dissatisfaction. While there are no notable positive aspects highlighted in the reviews, the overall sentiment reflects a strong recommendation for potential buyers to exercise caution before engaging with this vendor.

I believed I was purchasing physical copy of a book and didn't find out until after the purchase was complete that it was an e-book. Nowhere on the page for the specific book or at any point in the checkout process did it say it was an e-book (it asked for a shipping address as well). And no refunds.
I was trying to order a paperback book. If their site mentions ebooks, that's a big "if", I missed it. When I completed the order process and didn't see any shipping information, I knew something was wrong and immediately checked the order confirm email. It showed the download link. I never downloaded the book and asked for refund, but, of course, they refused and referred me to their Terms and Conditions. Such a scam.
Don't describe the product correctly, you buy it thinking it's a book, but you get an ebook. Are not professionals. Do not buy on this site. You will be deceived! UPDATE: After a few emails they returned my money and canceled the purchase.
Yes indeed it is a scam site. After you purchase the book they will send you a link to download a pdf of the book. No refunds. (I was able to send the pdf to my kindle and it did work to use it there, so I guess if you are aware that this is a pdf and not an actual book, it might work for you).
I thought I was buying an actual book as previous reviews have stated. It does ask for a zip code to calculate shipping, which is misleading if they only offer digital downloads. I have asked for my money back and said they do not offer refunds, but have offered a coupon for another download.
I bought several books as Christmas presents from Moonbokers. Was super excited about the price and they provided free shipping. Ordering was super easy and the prices were fair. HOWEVER, discovered after payment was applied that all of the "books" on this site are DIGITAL. NO WHERE on any of the descriptions of any of the books does it say DIGITAL. I didn't want e-books. And they company does not issue refunds - "it isn't something we do" they said. Don't order from Moonbokers.
The company took out money from my CC and never sent me a confirmation nor the book. The phone has a recording of a person, not a company. The Mailbox is always full. After emailing them, they did respond. When I told them I ordered a book, not a digital, they eventually refunded my money.
I ordered what I thought was a book, it even said free shipping, only to find out it is a download. Unable to get ahold of anyone to cancel. I would give this site no stars if that were an option!
I don't even have a confirmation email and it suppose to be hard cover but its E-book that i still didn't get
I can't stand thief's. It's sad to think if you order I guess from small companies or whatever you need to do your research on them first because this isn't the first time this is happened to me. Really kind of pisses me off.
I can't add a photo is they're suggesting because I don't have the product
I was under the impression that I was ordering actual books from Moonbookers so obviously I was confused when a month went by and I had not received them. I ordered THREE of Trebek's new book as Christmas gifts, so $30 wasted on 3 email versions barely big enough to see let alone read. The # isn't even valid so no hopes of a refund. I will definitely do my research before ever making an online purchase again. This business is a TOTAL SCAM
I was searching for a newer soft cover book and the book came up on this site where it showed the book with a title. It was not clear that the book was digital. It was over Black Friday weekend and the price was about 40% less than normal for the hardcover. I went ahead and bought. Then received an email to download the book. I immediately sent a note for a refund as I was looking for a physical book. Unfortunately the answer was they do do refunds. For digital content that was not accessed? Seriously. I would NEVER buy from this site again due to such poor customer service.
SCAM! No hard copies all pdf. Big rip off! Do not buy from them! Totally misleading! Read all the reviews. How can they still be allowed to do th is? I'm sure the books aren't even approved by the author to sell in this format!
Like most of the reviews I read on the Better Business Bureau and other review sites like this one. This website/company does trick you into buying what you think is a hard copy book however they send you an emoji copy and refuse any communication with you.
This is a scam operation tricking you into thinking you are purchasing a hard back book. (Even asking for your
mailing address.) They never communicate that you can only download a digital product. I have since learned that they offer no refunds. I have notified them that I will not be downloading any material from them and will be posting a very negative review.
Purchased a book thinking it was a paper version because it didn't say otherwise. Entered shipping info and finalized purchase only to find out it was an ebook and they do not offer refunds.
Answer: I can honestly say that I paid for my product and never ever received it
Answer: LoL, they don't send you a book and they don't offer refunds. Buyer beware!
Answer: The cheapest price for the book I was looking for.
