Misleading sales practices
I purchased two books from rentbooks.com and thought I was getting a fair price. However, while found the biology book I was looking for new and it was listed under the correct ISBN: 9781285427812: Concepts and Applications, by Starr, 9th Edition, but it actually shipped as ISBN: 9781285427843 which is the instructor's edition which is copy right protected and they are not suppose to sell it to anyone which they obviously did. Furthermore they will not purchase it back when I'm done with it. So I bought the book thinking I could sell it back, but they refuse to buyback what they sold after I'm done with it.

The description for that book stated "Same as student edition with publisher markings." at the time of purchase. These editions are legal for resale. You are welcome to return the book for a refund within 14 days fo the date you received it. Please contact our customer service at [email protected] if you would like to arrange for a return.
