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.

A friend and fellow plant lover recently loaned to me a fantastic book, The Macmillan Wild Flower Book. I loved it and was so excited to find that Thriftbooks had a copy, so I immediately ordered it for myself. The colored hand drawn plates are magnificent. This is the kind of book I would like to leave to a deserving family member one day. Thanks for making me so happy!

My 3 books came in fantastic shape

My 3 books came in fantastic shape. One of them was a hardback with the dust jacket. I order from Thriftbooks often and when I finish reading them, I put them in my Little Free Library.

Great service

The status updates are helpful. Delivery takes longer than Amazon, but I'm not buying from Amazon anymore! I'm disgusted with Amazon and I want to support other businesses. I also like that I can a great selection. Please make all banned books available if you can.

Books didn’t arrive on time and look terrible with the giant sticker

I ordered books to give out at a birthday party as a favor and based on the estimated delivery date, they were scheduled to arrive in plenty of time. Only part of the order arrived and most of it still has not arrived. The giant Thrift Book stickers on the books doesn’t make me want to give them away anyway!

Received my order in a week

Received my order in a week. The 4 books were in VERY GOOD condition: no notes, or bent edges. Although the pages were a little discolored because of age, I really liked how the whole book looked. I have been VERY HAPPY with Thrift Books this last purchase and the earlier ones. KEEP IT U! Thrift Books.
