LOOOOVE
January 11, 2018

I've been ordering from this site for YEARS, and I've only had one small issue, that a VERY friendly customer service representative was able to solve with one short phone call. I recommend this site to my college friends aaaaall the time!

Easy and Fast Order
January 10, 2018

My books were cheaper on this website and the book conditions were explained well. I loved the feature of putting in the ISBN number for your book; my books were found with no issue, and the check out process was easy.

The prices on the books were great. However, as many other reviews mention, their shopping cart is a mess. It intentionally uses Google Maps to populate the City, State and Zip. And it GM can't get it right, sorry about your luck. No manually changing those fields. Even the customer service people say they can't change it. And this is intentional. I had to use a neighbors address to place my order. The customer service chat was fast and friendly, just not able to do anything about the system. Now lets hope all the books I ordered get delivered without any issues.

The book was fairly cheap and if the book condition is as good as described, it will be worth my while

This site is one that it thinks you live where you do, when in fact, it can't get the address correct, THEN when you edit the address, it won't let you input the correct city.

First time
January 9, 2018

I paid over $500 on textbooks for this last semester and was not going to do it again. I'm glad I found this site! I saved $70 on renting through here vs buying this book through school. Thanks ValoreBooks.

The prices on books are great overall; however, the shipping is a bummer when you're buying multiple items. I tried looking for a coupon code to no avail. Glad I was able to get the books I needed and not spend an arm and a leg but just bummed about shipping for EACH item. I like Valore and I have been ordering from them for several years through undergrad and now graduate school.

Website Problems
January 8, 2018

The website is so hard to order. I looked online and they have been having the same problems for over a year. I wasn't able to put in the address and the price kept switching.

Great price. Beat Amazon, including its marketplace, and eBay. Best price on Google shopping, which is where I found it. Now I have a new bookstore on my list. Easy to use. So far, so good. Remains to be seen how they actually deliver. And whether I can edit this review after I receive what I ordered. To be continued...

Always a bargain
January 8, 2018

I check on other cheap textbook sights but always come back to Valore because they have the best prices and the best selection. I don't need to go to a dozen different websites.
