Its average
January 25, 2017

The search engine works bet with a moderate about of info but nothing too specific. Also checkout has a glitch that unless you use an auto filler, will not allow you to click and manually enter State or Zip which is needed to checkout!

Alternate Book
January 24, 2017

ValoreBooks had an alternate book that cost $160 less that has the same contents but different cover. If this is true, its a great savings.

Slightly awkward to navigate at first, though very useful when figured out, needs a way to filter or order search results. 3.8/5

Ordering was a breeze. I truly believe this question should come once I receive my order because I don't have much to report at this moment.

Awesome!
January 23, 2017

This is my first time ordering books through ValoreBooks and it was very much awesome! So I'm a senior in college and my friend just told me she orders all her books from here. So I searched all my ISBNs and she was right! All 5 books for the semester were cheaper on ValoreBooks! I'll recommend this site to anyone!

Amazing Service
January 23, 2017

I love this company, it beats the college store prices by far. I saved 150 dollars on three books... just by buying them here instead at my college... the college industry is crazy and outrageous. Thank you for making my life and my finances more acceptable haha!

Glad this was available
January 23, 2017

I am so glad this was here to use because my amazon order just vanished after checking on it over a month.
This is for school and very important. I do wish I could have picked the type of shipping.
Thanks

Almost perfect search engine
January 23, 2017

It is very easy to navigate the website and the prices are always competitive. I did look for a book under an ISBN and the book popped up, but then I noticed that all the info for the book was wrong. At first I thought it was great, because it was such a good price. I almost bought it before I noticed that it was listed as something totally different, with different authors as well.

Never had an issue
January 22, 2017

I have used Valor several times over the years and have never had an issue with them. Orders arrive on time, renting is a great alternative, and the books have always been in usable conditions.

Thank you!
