I use every time
October 25, 2024

Whenever I need a text book Textbook Rush is where I come to. I have not had any problem with the books I've received and I have also sold back books and gotten paid quickly. I recommend Textbook Rush to everyone!

Disappointed
December 10, 2024

Now I give them 1 star. The charge to my account was pending, then disappeared. It's been a month since I placed my order and still no book. Had to create an account to find out what the status of my order was. Now, I just want to cancel my order because I found it somewhere else and have actually received the book through the other place I purchased it from.

(My first impression when ordering) Ordering and checkout were easy to fill out. It was great being able to check out as a guest and not have to sign up for an account just for this one purchase.

Textbook return
December 20, 2024

Seems ok. Not sure what to expect. Just received my check. A little slow due to the holidays. I would like to see prices a little better for brand new, unused, still in the wrapper books.

Great Site. Great when the site works with my computer.

Updated review

I have had a good experience any time I use this site. But when I have multiple companies open to compare buybacks... sometimes the cookies from other sites cause it hard to reach this site. Hmmm... not sure why.

Still no updates
January 1, 2025

It took 3-4 business days just to pick the product. And now USPS still has no updates on the shipping information. Now I will not receive my order in time

Terrible Experience
September 25, 2024

Purchased a book and waited 3 weeks. Wrote customer service twice and they wouldn't even look into the situation. Just kept telling me it will ship eventually and no cancellations. Supposedly they have different warehouse locations that they have no contact with... Then poof, cancellation email comes in. This is a terrible company, don't waste your time.

Terrible Experience
October 1, 2024

It took 5+ business days to be informed that the textbook I purchased was not available. The product should not have been advertised on the website at all if it was unavailable, and I should not have been informed of this fact an entire week after purchasing. Will never use this platform again.

Your site has historically been very slow compared other buyback sites. It's been better the last month or two.

Buy back never delivered
December 5, 2024

FedEx was unable to track the tracking number provided on the label from this company. Basically, I lost a $68 buy back and the book as well. I wish I would have read the reviews before choosing to seek back to this company. I did reach out to TextBook Rush and they basically blamed it on FedEx. I ship things quite often and never had this happen.

Acceptable
December 4, 2024

The book came quickly but it had some pages that looked like they were eaten by something, I had to rip those pages out. The book was also really sticky on the back and it has black stains on it that smelled like car oil. I will be keeping the book because I can still read the content, because the pages i had to remove was just the index. I am not
Sure I would purchase from this company again...

Address
August 23, 2024

I used to have great experiences with textbook rush. Then it started to refuse to accept my home address as valid. I am having it shipped to my university address instead, but this is a major issue and frustration for me. My address is valid, and it won't let me complete an order using it.

Library Stickers Are Not Good Condition
December 2, 2024
Updated review

One of the books I ordered was in perfect condition and arrived promptly. The other was covered in library stickers, a status that was not stated in the book's description. In my opinion this is disgustingly fraudulent and unethical behavior.

Previous review

The website reloaded dozens of times before allowing me to reach the product I was looking for; the screen where I was filling in my payment info reloaded after I had already filled it in once, forcing me to fill it all in a second time; an additional 67-cent charge was added to my order that only became visible after I clicked the button to finalize the order (I can't see what it was for with this screen in the way, but I assume it was some kind of processing fee or sales tax, which is fine, but on principle I think it's unethical to conceal the full price until after the customer has committed to paying.)
