These people sold 135 books on eBay and then refunded people without any explanation, all because the book suddenly became popular and they knew they could get more money out of them. Zero integrity. Ebay was notified also.

Moldy Product

Hello,Better World Books appears to have made a lot of people happy by the number of good reviews, I truly wish I had been one of them. Last week I purchased a book through Amazon, sold by Better World Books (Mishawaka), 55740 Currant Road, Mishawaka, Indiana 46545. The book is for a friend, I have my own copy from years ago.The book is covered in mold(see photos) and smelling badly. The book is in such bad condition that I took the photo of it on the hood of my car and tossed the book into the garbage can next to the Publix supermarket. No way was I going to bring it into my home, let alone gift it to someone.This is not my first disappointment in a product, I doubt it will be my last.The question that I hope someone from Better World Books asks the retailer in Mishawaka is, “ What the h@ll were you thinking when you placed this book into a shipping envelope?”

They tricked me into buying an extra book

I ordered a number of books, maybe 10. I received an email confirming the purchase and it tied to what I bought. Then when I received the order, there was included a book I never heard of. It was a bargain book, but still I did not order it. I went to look at my "bill" and the book was on there. I wrote an email to complain and they said to send it back on my shipping nickle. This really angered me. I suspect this might be the way they operate. The title seemed to fit into the types of books I bought. However, the book was titled 50 Shades of Chicken - a parody of a cookbook featuring bondage with chicken recipes. I do not have a sense of humor and never saw that book before. Please be careful of what you order from this company.

Payed for expedited shipping but it…

Payed for expedited shipping but it took 10 days to receive the books ordered. I ordered on a Thursday (not a holiday) and they didn't ship until Monday. Otherwise the books were in good condition and clean.

Book Never Arrived and refund refused

I did not receive a book for 6.50 from them that I ordered on ebay. After 15 days I still had not received the book.i contacted them and they told me to wait 3 more days to contact them. They refused to look into it. This is the WORST place to order a book. They do not care about readers and are so greedy that they refuse to give a 6.50 refund.

customer service worse than awful - is there anyone home????????

You cannot get a hold of anyone at this company. I placed an order - put down the wrong address - immediately contacted them by phone, email etc - no one answers anywhere in any language that makes any sense - and the books are being shipped to a place i am not at and they had ample time to correct or at least warn their customers. these guys have good prices but customer service is worse than dreadful

Good feeling

It's a great feeling to not only buy something special to read but help others have access to good books!
