Received both copies in very good condition. Time from ordering to receipt of books was acceptable. Due to this positive experienceI have placed a second order for books.

I love getting books here, especially older, slightly obscure books which I often need for research. Delivery is fast and the condition of the book is good.

Like everything about BWB except for the fact that they don't update the current availability of their books. Ultimately, they have to cancel part of my order and issue refunds.

I went under hardcover books to order and I assumed they were all hardcover and when I got them one was paper back. Was disappointed that it was under hardcover. Would cost more to send it back and get the hardcover than it's worth.

i was a frequent buyer from betterworldbooks for years. at one point their value, customer service & standard of books was great but in time, i was sent more often than not books nowhere near the condition they were listed as - add to this deliveries that ALWAYS arrived later than the estimated period & a experiences with one staff member in particular who attempted to shift the blame to me (& dodge responsibility) despite my providing photographic evidence of poor condition of what was received. clearly, customers are NOT valued - only your MONEY is. on my final purchase for example, the inside covers (front & back) were stained dark yellow as if it had been pissed on! yet the book was listed as 'used-good'. disgusting... suffice to say, standards got horrible & i will not be returning as a customer. to sum up, many other online used book sellers do it better & the standard of the books is also much better. if you ARE a current buyer/customer, i urge you to check the the condition of the books you receive against their book condition standards - it's clear that they do not expect you to do this based on my experiences calling them out! avoid 'betterworldbooks'....

I've been waiting my order for more than a month and Better World Books refuses to refund me. They've kept changing the delivery date again and again (I've been choosing them over other seller because of the delivery dates) and ask me to wait until an undefined date to ask for refund. At the end of the day, I've lost 55$ and a lot of time dealing with their consumers' service. Oh, and by the way they were pretty unpleasant with me since they told me that, "[i]f this delivery time did not meet [my] needs, [I was] not obligated to place the order", which is inadmissible as they are unable to give me a delivery date ! I've made a complaint with the Better Business Bureau (I'm not the first!) and I hope I could get refund. Nevertheless, I've spent a lot of time demanding that the Internet Order Merchandise Rule be honoured, and time is money. Hope this review will help you, don't go with them, they are fraudster!

I would really appreciate it if I let known when a book is a library binding. Some of them are listed, so I thought I would be safe ordering ones that didn’t state that they were ex library books, yet half od the ones I got in this order were ex library books.

Glad to receive my books and know that they have served library readers well before me, and that benefit will also flow to readers from less wealthy countries. Win-win-win!

The packaging for the book was moderately ripped up by the time it reached my mailbox and did not provide sufficient protection. The book is still readable however is all warped and disfigured. Not pleased with this purchase
