TextbookRush Reviews Summary

The company has garnered mixed feedback regarding its reputation and customer service. Positive sentiments highlight competitive pricing, a wide selection of textbooks, and satisfactory product quality when items are received. However, significant concerns arise from prolonged order processing and shipping delays, leading to frustration among customers. Issues with order cancellations, lack of tracking information, and inadequate customer support further exacerbate dissatisfaction. Overall, while the company offers appealing prices and a user-friendly purchasing experience, it must address operational inefficiencies and communication gaps to enhance customer trust and satisfaction.

The book was in very bad condition
February 14, 2025

The book has writing all over it. Some sections were scribbled out, pages were torn, and it smells like someone was a very heavy smoker

Hey, I have always enjoyed selling my books to TextbooksRush. There is always a high point to know that I am in good hands with TEXTBOOKRUSH and knowing that the money from the books will arrive within days of selling the books. Thank you!

Took my books
February 9, 2025

I purchased 2 books locally, thought selling them through this company would be easy, they confiscated the books due to it be a "counterfeit copy", they will not be returned, and have no clue when their investigation will be completed.

Books - it is an experience in college. My college bookstore did not have it available, and Amazon wanted to sell it to me for $60-&110, for a book I knew was worth ~$40. Overall, I paid that $40, and got my book on time, within days! I even made sure to inform my professor and other classmates so that they could get the book if needed! Definitely coming back!

Easy and Fast
February 2, 2025

Very simple and east to figure out how things work. I got my textbook rather quickly, but my only complaint is the packaging. It was rather difficult for me to open since at times I just feel weak. Overall great experience with this site.

Item not received
February 1, 2025

It took more than 5 days for my order to be processed. Then the item sat in the warehouse for another week before it was shipped. Nearly 3 weeks later since I placed my order still haven't received my textbook and it is still in transit to USPS. I ordered early so that I will get my textbook before January 27th but don't know still if textbook will come in time. Will never recommend this company as they can't process orders quickly nor can they ship items in a time manner.

For the last 2 semesters our bookstore has been out of the books I need. Textbook Rush always has what I need at a cheaper price, and they can get it here sooner that our school store.

Suuuuper slow shipping
January 26, 2025

Finding, ordering, and paying for book was a breeze, but the shipping was ridiculously slow.
So if u have time on ur hands then no issues cause the book itself looks OK haven't taken it out of wrapper yet.

It's been almost 2 weeks and no sign of my textbook. I checked out as a guest so I dont think I can track my order either. Might have to contact customer service.

Bad management or scam
January 25, 2025

I order a book and paid for it with my credit card.
According to the website, the book was in stock.
Few days later, I received an email telling me that they cancelled the order because it's not available. I hope it is management issue and not a scam because they have all my credit card information. I am not happy with this company.
I ordered the book from Amazon

Using the site was easy. I'm just a little concerned about the time it takes to ship the package. If it arrives in a timely manner, I'll give you a super review. Thanks.
