Second time of using this company and I am pleased with the process. Communications on the transaction were clear and regular. Also once my parcel had been collected I was informed of its progress. I also received payment the same day they took delivery of my submission. The app is good with its scanning.

Great way of topping up your income
Great way of topping up your income. Offered a 15% bonus. But could not reach the required amount as scanner kept freezing and eventual. I had to cash in.

Collection service is a farce
Couldn’t complete the trade as DPD did not turn up to collect my books, even after three attempts. They did not leave a card (because they never actually arrived at my address) and did not call.
World of Books do not offer any other way to post the books so I have resorted to using a company that is more flexible and more efficient.

Very straightforward
The process was very straightforward and the payment was fast. The price for a lot of the books was surprisingly small, however. But for the convenience, it's still worth considering and I will do it again.
