Cheap Books
May 12, 2018

The books on the site are very affordable and in good condition. The only downside is the books do take a very long time to get to you.

First time using this site. I'm nervous because of some of the reviews! I really hope it works out. I will definitely update my review when/if my book comes and the condition that it is in.

My over $200 order of books was cancelled. With no explanation. Just an email, saying I would not receive my books. When I replied, I got the an automative message, I replied a second time saying this was poor customer service, could I be contacted directly to discuss the matter and assistance with re-ordering. I got the SAME automative message again. From "Missy" in customer service. I made sure to purchase my rentals on another website. I only purchased a few cheap ones from Valore that were not available elsewhere.

Ease of rental
May 9, 2018

The site was easy to navigate. Very little in the way of ads or jargon to get in the way of the final purchase. Quick and user friendly.

Good selection and affordable shipping for bulky textbooks that might otherwise be pricey in shipping from other retailers. Many used bookstores make up the discounted price of the book in high shipping costs.

Amazing price for a new textbook. Assuming it arrives in a decent time and as described, I will definitely be checking here first for the next four years of my book needs!

Great. Had the book I needed last minute for a class. Hoping it comes with the online access code, read other reviews and it said it will. Looking forward to that.

I use gettextbooks.com to compare the prices of all the books I need for school and Valore is consistently the most inexpensive option. I use them probably 80-85% of the time. They're great!
