Mostly good value but one book has a goodwill price tag for 1.99 but I was charged $6. Kind of deceiving value and reselling.

Hardcover book damaged in shipping
Ordered hardcover book labeled as "Very Good" condition. Book arrived with torn front and back cover corners due to torn thin plastic mailing bag. Also has marks from sliding in mailing bag on front and back covers. Inside front cover has writing in ink, as well as "To, From, Date" page filled in. Price was $10 more than original price of book. I was willing to pay that for a book in "Very Good" condition, but this book is not!

The book arrived fast
The book arrived fast, but my idea of very good condition and your companies idea of very good condition or very far apart.......the book is creased wrinkled and bent.......not quite sure how that qualifies as very good condition. It will get donated and I will over spend for a new one.

Fine service
Fine service. Maybe slightly faster than in the past, but there was no real tracking of the 3 packages I received, but got them fine.

Zero stars!
I wish U could give you ZERO stats right now! I received a text that my book was delivered. I opened the package with sweet anticipation only yo find a completely wrong book so far removed from the logarithms you use to solict me with "books you might like" emails that I get slammed with... I am so disappointed. I was ordering 3 books on metaphysical and spirituality topics and you sent me a book called why I am a Democrat by T.C.Sorensen. I hope my 5$ bonus whatever wasn't applied to that! What a let down! And there's no phone number to talk to a person is there? Oh and the darn book has somebody's list of phone numbers on a folded piece of paper in it. Now what I do? Hurry up and wait. Right? Oh and maybe you should remove the Goodwill stickers that say 99cents when you charge 12 bucks for a book with highlighter in it. Bummer.

Toriana's Review of Thriftbooks
My experience was great, without any complications, and was fast. It was easy to search for the book. My book's appearance was as described. From searching to purchasing to receiving, this process was seamless.
