If I could give this 0 stars, I would. At first, everything went smoothly when shipping this to them. I even received a confirmation email that they had received my book. Only a few days later, they sent another email saying that my book had bad binding and the new quote on it was $0.00. My book, by the way, was almost brand new and in excellent condition. They said they could return it to me, but I would have to pay shipping. Even though they payed the shipping for me to send it to them??? THIS IS A SCAM!

TAKE YOUR BUSINESS ELSEWHERE!!! I wish I’d read the reviews before doing business with this “company”. I sent in 6 textbooks to these incompetent liars to which they told me I’d receive ~$140. I sent the books in using the postage they emailed me, and began to become suspicious after I tracked the package and saw it was delayed. I continued to track it and by this point the package was delayed about 3 weeks. It was documented that the package had arrived at the facility but still needed to be signed for. It remained in that status for days. I decided to read reviews for them and saw that people were not getting the money they were told they’d get due to “water damage” or “missing books”. Low and behold when they FINALLY processed my order (a month after me sending them in) they say there were three books missing. LIE. Now the payout has decreased drastically to $50. Seriously? You mean to tell me that hundreds of people all decided to just send in only HALF their order? Please. These people are scammers, liars, incompetent, and deceitful. Find another more reputable and trustworthy place to sell your books back to!

Do not do business with this company!! I sent my book back in great shape, but then got an email saying there was water damage and damage to the binding. They will offer you less money or make you pay for return shipping to get your book back. Total scam. Please, please return your book to another buyer. This place will 'offer' you the most cash back, but you will end up getting way less than other buyers.

I bought a brand new textbook, never once opened it during the semester of my class and sent it to them and they claimed it had ripped and torn pages which is not possible. They will scam you, and make you pay money to get your book back.

SHAME on me for not checking reviews for this company. Shipped several books and the one that they offered me the most on was in GREAT condition. They reduced the offer ($30 less than quoted) because they said the cover was torn...it absolutely was not. Wanted me to pay for return shipping. DO NOT USE them. They will scam you!

Claimed it had water damage. They want me to pay for my own book to get it back. Complete scam. Do not use this place. Save yourself the trouble

I sent my book and they received it now the status shows contact customer. I can not find a # for them and I have tried emailing them but it don't go through. Please do not use this company.

Sent Textbook Maniac a book in very good condition (no damage) worth $9.05 buy back. They received it, then sent an e-mail claiming it had water damage and was worth $0. My only recourse was to pay for them to ship it back to me, or let them keep it. After this, I read reviews of many others who had the same experience, even the same false claim of "water damage". SCAMMERS!
