Damn near criminals
They quoted me $50 for a $177 Earth Science textbook in perfect condition. I was finished with it so I sent it in and while I was awaiting a payment confirmation e-mail I was surprised when I opened their email and learned they were now giving me nothing, no explanation. After many email exchanges, and photos of "water-damage" that I can't even discern, nor did it exist when I sent them the book, I requested the book back and now, all of the sudden, they offer me $15!!! If that's not suspicious enough, their customer support person, Melissa, extremely unprofessionally engages me in a petty, back-and-forth e-mail argument that's gone on for the better part of a month until finally I just ended up just blocking them and filing a complaint with the BBB. I sent them a postage-paid self addressed package but still haven't received my book nor a check. This is quite literally a racket and I'm considering consulting an attorney. I know I can't be the only one they've done this to.
