I bought a book off this website for $130 and then 2-days later after purchase they cancelled my order due to not having the book in storage (which is weird why they wouldn't just wait till they got more) well I go back in to the website to buy it again (weird that I can purchase it again when they just said they didn't have it) and I see the price of $375. I realize they cancelled my order raised the price and now want to me pay way more. I'm upset because I need the book for class and can't wait around 2 weeks with a website if I cannot get my book. I bought it somewhere else. Terrible first (and probably last) impression.

Hello, It sounds like you purchased a marketplace item, as we have not had any price changes of a similar nature. I'm sorry that the seller cancelled the book. Please let me know if there's anything else I can do for you, I've sent the option for you to reply with any additional info.

Ordered multiple books and two of them have already been canceled. One I received a confirmation email that the order had been fulfilled. Have ordered from many different book companies over 12 years of education and this is the first time I have had a bad experience. Don’t waste the time and your books not show up in time for class. Use a different company.

I rented a book from them and received it in a timely matter. When it was time to return the book, I returned it on Nov. 14, 2020 and got a receipt from the shipper. A month later I started getting emails stating that the book was still due to be returned. Fortunately I kept the receipt. I kept receiving emails from the company stating I needed to return the book and I KNEW I had already returned it. Then I received a reminder by mail with someone else's name but my address stating I needed to have the book returned by Jan 31, 2021. So, I called customer service and gave them the tracking number and the guy located my return which they received, I think around Dec. 8, 2020. The customer service rep stated that he would annotate my account that it had been received. Two months later I check my credit card account and they have charged me stating that I had not returned my book. This is a pain in the butt having to go through this AFTER I have talked with someone who clearly saw that I had returned my book. I WILL NOT EVER USE THIS SERVICE AGAIN!!!. I emailed the company so I'll see what they say.

Hello, We located your order. Due to some unknown reason (we are investigating) your package sat at USPS for over a month at one of the way stations, causing it to arrive late. This is obviously not your fault, so we are refunding you immediately. We apologize that this charge was ever made, it should not have been. Thanks, TextbookX

WORST CUSTOMER SERVICE EVER! They do not listen to what you are saying and don't try to solve the problem properly, all they say is we'll email you once I look into it more. I have never been so mad with any service ever. I buy a book never received it after 3 months, then my class is almost half over. I call to cancel it multiple times so I can get my money back. They then send me the book when I said I don't need it anymore. Now I have to pay for shipping back to them and wait even longer for my $250 refund. I WILL NEVER BUY A BOOK FROM THEM AGAIN.

Hannah, Thank you for your review. I was able to identify your order, and find that our policy was not being applied correctly. We certainly got your request to cancel, and were unable to cancel the shipment due to a change in staff at the publisher who was shipping the item. That's not your fault, and you shouldn't be penalized for it. To make things right, we're sending you a prepaid return label, and refunding your item. Again, thanks for bringing this to our attention, we were able to re-align our advocates so this doesn't happen to another student. TextbookX

Ben is EXCELLENT. How could I ever do my job without Ben? Thanks for everything you do.

Thank you so much! It's nice to know that you have such a good Customer Service department--and it's really hard on students and faculty, and especially your online bookstore. This season has been particularly erratic with bundled "deals", and I know you must have a headache every day having to deal with these tedious issues. We really appreciate your help. This will certainly be a grand relief to our students when they finally receive their textbooks and resources.

They will renig on any deal made on rare or popular low stock books. This company doesn't have morals and don't care about their customers because they actually don't have to face them. Laws are laws. Enjoy!
