I've never had this many issues with a checkout form in my life. First it wouldn't let me enter info for city, zip code, and state. So I just put those in address line 1 figuring eh they'll figure it out. Well duh, can't do that, "please enter city, zip code, and state" well, the boxes are grayed out and I can't enter anything in them, soooo no.
Figured out you have to right click reload the page (refresh didn't work) over and over and over and over again until finally it lets you fill in those boxes. Sweet, now we're getting somewhere.
Wrong again, now I need to enter and confirm my email address even though I already did that, I can see my email address freshly typed on both lines. Here we are back to square one, reload, reload, reload, reload, slowly type and click with military precision, everything looks good, nothing telling me I'm missing info, and now the "place order" button decides it is no longer a link, it's just a picture. It doesn't do anything. Am I on a fake site? Is my credit card information going straight to some stranger in china?
About 25 minutes later the stars aligned and I finally got the order placed by just reloading and trying again over and over until everything worked. You're lucky I'm broke and have no choice but to buy cheap books on this garbage site.
I had a great time getting the books. These are always the best prices, but when I tried to check out the City State and Zip boxes were all not clickable so i had to go into the sites code and remove the disabled = disabled for each one
The ordering process was short and easy, and the books were delivered in a timely manner without any problems.
This is such a great alternative to buying books full price on campus. Was looking for a book online that cost around $70 on most cites and found it here for under $20. Using this site can certainly save you a lot of money when it comes to those expensive college textbooks!
This site was so easy to navigate; all info was plainly spelled out; prices were unbelievably reasonable! I will definitely use this site again.
I found the best deals between Chegg and Amazon here on Valorebooks, and I'm grateful for the reasonable prices. The only problem I had was during checkout. While typing in my first address line, I didn't know that I NEEDED to make a selection from the drop-down menu of verified addresses that appears. I contacted tech support, and I did get a reply from the support staff the following morning, they had had the tech team look into it. In this meantime a couple of books in my cart had been bought, as I had worried. I proceeded to solve the problem for myself, and placed the order. I think a prompt on the screen that reads "You must select an address from the drop-down menu" would be a good improvement to help people complete their orders.
Books were inexpensive which is great for college students, and service was outstanding. Shipping costs were for the individual books, but they were overall the same price with shipping added in, I will definitely order from here again.
Love. Super easy. It was so convenient and one of the cheapest prices I've seen so i would highly recommend
The purchase was fast and I found what I was looking for at a cheap price. I really enjoyed the experience will be back for more books.
Easy process to check out. It was easy to find what I was looking for and I'm thankful you had what I needed. I just need it by Friday.
I have used ValoreBooks before and had good luck. This time around, they cancelled 2 of the 5 books my daughter needed. NOT ONE TIME, but TWICE. The worst part about this is that they didn't even notify me that the books were being cancelled. I happened to go onto the website to see what the shipping status was so I could let my daughter know when to expect the books. Here I see it said 'cancelled' and $0.00 charged. Don't promise books if you can't deliver.
Some friends recommended me ValoreBooks I never used it before, but I might say I didn't regret the experience at all. I was in a rush when I ordered the book, worried about when I could possibly receive it then, it only takes 3 days which I was grateful of.
This was so easy to order and obtain the books that are so desperately needed. This was nice and simple way to rent textbooks and save money
Everything was easy to find, prices were reasonable and reliable for rentals, Layout of website was very user friendly and neat.
My address is unrecognized by google maps I guess... so I had to send the book to a friend of mine. Why can't you type in the city or zip code box? Cheap books though. :)
I decided to buy a book from you guys, but once I reached the checkout page, the text boxes for "City", "Zip Code", and "State" were all disabled from the start without any explanation whatsoever. I tried filling out all the other boxes with the correct information and nothing changed. I tried continuing, but you had the gall to tell me that the fields you wouldn't let me fill out were required to move on. After trying everything I could think of, I went into inspect element and manually removed the disabled="disabled" attribute from each of the boxes, filled them in and was successful in placing my order. I don't know why the hell I was made to do such a thing and frankly I don't care anymore. I won't be using this site again.
Thanks for your feedback! Our site is built to auto-verify your address for you. All you need to do is type until the drop-down menu pulls up your address and click. The system autofills the rest!
I have always have a good experience with valorebooks, both selling and buying. I have found books at a very low price, I thought it was too good to be true. But I always get the right books, and always on time. I would recommend to anybody.
Valore Books offers the best prices for textbooks for college. Keep offering great prices. I have rented from them in the past and the return process is so... easy. They provide everything from the packing slip and return label.
It's a really great deal on books that would normally cost an arm and a leg to buy at the campus bookstore.
Answer: DONT DO IT! This place is shady with business. They may or may not send you the products or even your money. It seems like a great website with great reviews, but dont be fooled
