SCAMMERS DO NOT RENT FROM THEM. They will give you the same return label for your books and then claim you never sent one of the books so they can charge you extra. They are thieves preying on broke... See more

Textbooks!

All of the books I have received from this cite have been in good shape and arrived in a timely manner. I don’t have to worry if I’m going to receive my books before classes start because this cite is reliable!

Shipping???

Some of my books got back ordered so I ended up missing two weeks of curriculum. When they did arrive they were in such good condition and arrived when expected.

Mr Joe Fragola

Mr. Joe Fragola has been sending me books for the past year. He has been wonderful communicating with me and emails me when my books are in route to Guam. I really appreciate him and all his efforts to get me my books on time.

It’s very easy

It’s very easy for me to purchase any books I need for classes.The services is great and is very helpful. I had ordered a book for one of my class and it came in 4-5 days later.

French grammar book

I ordered a French grammar book for my class. I went through the whole complicated process of selecting the shipping, the shape of the book, and new/used. Since it is a workbook I ordered a new one and at the time of order it said it was in stock and gave me a shipping date. A week later it came back and said the order could not be fulfilled. This is my school bookstore and they could not fulfill a book I need for a class at their school. We do not have a bookstore on campus, French books are hard to find, and I already tried Amazon (which was also out of stock) so I do not even know where to look for the book.

I like how it shows online exactly what books I need for my classes, prices and other options. Ships quickly right to my door. Also has reasonably priced good quality shirts and other items to purchase in store.

Quality and Speed

My exact required textbooks were easy to find and I was able to purchase them for an especially reasonable price. They arrived earlier than expected in excellent condition and packaged very securely. I will definitely continue using this service for my textbook needs.

Great Experience

I only needed to purchase one book but it was reasonably priced, and it was shipped fairly quickly. Only downfall was that it was a bit difficult to find the textbook I needed.

Book prices have been increasing…

Book prices have been increasing steadily, which has caused me to delay in purchasing my books at the start of class. With textbookX.com's fair prices I can afford to buy my books on time, keeping me up to date with my work. I will keep using textbookX and recommend the site as well..

Fairly easy

This is Max V. I thought that TextbookX was fairly simple to use, and the prices for my textbooks weren't all that much (Some were but for most of them, they were reasonable). Will definitely use again next semester.
