I have used this site multiple times over the last 5 years while attending college. The prices have always been reasonable.

Hopefully these books arrive on time. Costly books and expensive shipping per usual. Nonetheless, the process was easy enough

It is a pleasure and blessing to be able to purchase used and low cost text books to help with the high cost of college and tuition.

ValoreBooks website was very easy to navigate and straightforward. The site offered numerous options of the books I was looking for and was about the same or less in terms of price compared to other used text book sites I compared.

Good prices for a lot of books, but some books are cheaper elsewhere. Otherwise I have had a relatively good experience with this website.

I've been buying my books here for the last 3 or 4 semesters and love it... There are no lines for hours, you just order and they send them promptly. I order her before going to my college store.

We found that the books we needed to by for school were cheaper here than on most other sites; particularly our reading and course books. Even the used option were at a better price. I will shop this site again next year for sure.

I always look on Valore Books for my textbook, and I almost always find the best price. I love that they offer different options and make it easy to comparison shop in one place.

They just cancelled our order. No message from them as to say, we will let you know when the books come in. Very disappointing! Ordered from Barnes and Nobel and they were here in 3 days.

The process was easy enough, but prices changed in 2 days so I did not get a good deal. Still very costly to rent but even more costly to buy a book I will only use for class.

Have used for a year now and have not been disappointed. I understand that technical errors happen and my order was also canceled. But I can't judge on one incident. I saw a dense comment where the writer said her order was cancelled and she was so upset that she ordered the book somewhere else but only purchased a few cheap one form Valero LOL. Well I am submitting my order again and I hope it works this time. Keep up the good work valero.

First time buyer... buying for Summer Session. Paid for expedited shipping. I'll definitely keep you updated. If shipping is slow and service is crappy... I'll redo my review all over social media.

Great Prices!
June 7, 2018

I had an experience with valore books in the past where I had owed some money as failure to return books. I took care of it and was hopeful I could return again because the prices on text book rentals is affordable for me compared to my school book store. I am happy to be back, and this time doing things the right way. I appreciate valore giving me another chance and keeping prices of textbooks affordable. :)
