THIS COMPANY SCAMMED ME!!!

Sent them 6 books because they had the highest buyback price. They stated they only revieved 3 of them and that they were reducing the price to less than half. I sent all of the books in the same packaging so if they recieved 1 they recieved all. They wouldnt send me back my books either so now I'm out 70 dollars.

DO NOT DO BUSINESS WITH THEM. THEY OFFER ONE PRICE AND STALL WITH GENERATING POSTAGE, YOU THINK THE SITE IS STUCK AND START THE PROCESS OVER THEN THEIR OFFER DROPS DRAMATICALLY TO LESS THAN HALF. CROOKS WITH NO GOOD INTENTIONS. SAVE YOUR TIME AND CHECK OTHER SITES.

Absolutely do not under any circumstance send your books to them. You might be like me and think despite the bad reviews you’re going to give it a try. Don’t. They took my book that is in near perfect condition offered 20.54 and then on on of the back index pages claimed there’s water damage. Can’t even see this in photos I requested. They then offered 9 or for me to pay them to have it shipped back. Absolutely not going to happen. They scam you. They never intended on paying what they offer at first. Pick a different company who is reliable and doesn’t scam and play games

I'm another case of " I should have read the reviews before sending my book in". shortly put if you are lucky to get your money it will be shorted by a big chunk for untrue "damages" to the book. Then if you dont accept the new price they will keep your book hostage and ghost you. Scamming at its best is what these guys are doing. You will either have to beg for your refund or you get shorted with your money and get some back if you are lucky! Sent in an almost brand new book in and they claimed that it has water damage on it to short my original quote by a big chunk then asked for money to ship it back if you don't accept the new price. Asked for pictures that show the "water damage". The company stopped replying. Well played scam game ladies and gentlemen.

I wish I read the reviews before sending back my book! The company tried to pay me less than half of the agreed upon value. It looks like that is their typical move as they hold the books hostage. Unlucky for them, it was a law school book so I have stronger that usual resources. No where in their terms do they describe having this capability and they are bound to the agreed upon price. I will be contacting the better business bureau to file a complaint and should hopefully have this site shut down in the near future so they can no longer rip off students.

I was disappointed to see the negative reviews. However, I have been sending my books/textbooks to Textbookmaniac for 3 years. My experience has been anything less than awesome. Ok, I waited extra days to receive reimbursement. Some sellbacks were paid sooner. The fact is,we always received payment for our sellbacks. Thank goodness I am not the only customer who may need to wait because there other customers before me and jeez, did it kill me to wait my turn. Well, No. So, I built a bridge and got over it. Textbook maniac, many thanks for just sending my payments. Lol. I appreciate how easy and pleasant customer service responded to one querie and my voice was heard. The gentleman who answered the phone was in our country, spoke my language and resolved confidently, my concern. Concern became relief. Anyway, Only if my experiences were as good as Textbook maniacs. Better stop before I jinx myself because you guys owe me money and then I will be writing a review much like one that prompted me to put my 2 cents in. Thanks textbookmaniac staff.

I sent in a book 2 months ago. Received an email saying payment would be issued. It has been 2 months and still have not received my check. I'm going to call non stop until I get my payment sent.
