August 7, 2018

After reviewing many websites, I have found valorebooks is consistently the least expensive. Ordering and receiving is very easy and quick.

I regret putting my personal information onto this site because as soon as I completed my order it prompted me the option to have "free return shipping and 10% cash back". I clicked it and it sent me to a different site that was sketchy.

Easy access!
August 6, 2018

It was so easy to rent textbooks from ValoreBooks! The only problem I has was I love to save money and I never saw a place for a coupon code or promo code to save money on my order.

Works
August 3, 2018

I can work it and its cheaper than other sites. Still though textbooks should be this cheap to begin with so I hate their profit model of buying books from poor kids for practically nothing and then making money off them.

With several children going through college, everything helps out when it comes to cost. I have used ValoreBooks multiple times and the process is easy!
Thank you!

The process of ordering the book was easy and the price of the book was affordable. I hope you guys can continue to do good job after all the reviews I have read about your poor service. Please try to prove to me that those reviews are not true.

I have saved hundreds of dollars on textbooks for college using this website. They are highly reliable and I am always notified when my book is supposed to arrive. It also has fast shipping which is perfect since school doesn't normally tell us which books to buy until a week and a half before school starts.

The ordering process of these books was simple and the books were the lowest cost in comparison to other sites. We will update once the order is received to confirm the books are in "good" to "very good" as stated.

Had the best pricing on book rentals for almost all of the seven text books I need this semester for college. Glad I was able to get some many texts at the price other websites charge to buy or even rent one book!

What Happened?
July 28, 2018

Valorebooks and their reviews to the right, what happened? They use to be great some time ago, I hope they can turn it around by chopping off the cancerous heads they hired.

Its okay...
July 28, 2018

They do cheap rentals and do really good buy backs. However their customer service sucks. I have rented from them in the past and they take forever to ship out and they take forever to look through books to see how much they will give you for books...

Love Cheap Rentals
July 27, 2018

Always a good place to look for rentals.It seems that it is always one of the cheapest places to look and I have had a lot of success in my college career shopping for rentals and this is one of my favorite places to shop.

I have used Valore for my grad school books. I have been satisfied with the product, the delivery and no nonsense return of rentals. Most books are cheap enough that I buy them to use for future reference.

Cheap
July 26, 2018

Books have a lower price then other websites. Loved it! I bought two books for the price of one in the other websites. Even, the college bookstore was a little cheaper then the other websites.

Super cheap!
July 26, 2018

Many textbooks are the lowest prices I could find compared to anywhere else. Ordering from Valore Books is fast, easy, and an enjoyable experience. The only downside is a lack of free shipping, but when the books themselves are so cheap it's much easier to overlook. Overall, I would recommend the company to anyone who is in need of textbooks at low prices. I have used for 3 semesters and plan on using Valore Books for the rest of my college experience!
