While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more

To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

Looking at 11,492 reviews, reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently find the selling process remarkably easy, efficient, and straightforward, appreciating the convenience and reliability of the service. Many highlight the promptness of payments, with funds often received quickly after items are processed, and praise the overall service for its effectiveness and clear communication. However, some people mentioned that prices offered for books can be low, especially for newer or valuable items, making it difficult to achieve a desired payout. A few other people also felt that items were rejected, leading to issues with payment or return of books.

Easy to scan books to check their value and free collection by DPD was great. However I didn't get the expected value for my books - I received a message to say that 3 books were missing from my pack... See more

The process was a 5 star but communicating with the company was 1 star. The AI chat would only allow certain topics and there was no place to leave comments, though it did indicate you could. Would su... See more

Identifying books is a cinch using your scanning app, making the process verry easy. And the mailing process is equally simple, convenient and quick. I do wish that the price you pay for books was... See more

I wish I’d read the reviews before…

I wish I’d read the reviews before trading with them. I sent in some books and also three tarot decks, all tarot decks as new. In fact, one of them I had only looked through but never actually used. When it came to payment, however, I received a total pittance. Turns out all three decks had been marked as not received. Thieving gits. I thought it would be nice for them to go to someone who might get a bit more use out of them. I wish I hadn’t bothered now. Never again.

Excellent Service

This is an amazing facility to save wastage of no longer used books so that someone else can use them. Thankyou for making the process so easy.

Not Received

Hi - we have sent several books to you over a period of time, this particular time you have sent back with Not received.
I have tried to contact you without success, perhaps an email to write my message would be good, I have gone to your robot but it does not give me the opportunity to ask the question!
