This is a great and easy way to sell any books you do not want. The only reason I have not given it five stars is not because of the ease of selling the books but rather the relatively small percent... See more

It is difficult to contact personnel

It is difficult to contact personnel. The chatbot is nonsense and not helping. I have to figure out myself to solve prepaid label problem. The customer service, all they could do was providing the answers that not related to even solve my problem.

Having a 'bookshelf' on WoB is excellent; it saves books for the future and alerts customers to when any of the books are on offer. The save a trade for later option is brilliant; it means I'm not restricted by time when interrupted. The pick-up service is a bonus, and payment into my bank is convenient.

Still too early for an honest review...

It was all good w/the exception of a few things.
A lot of the books I scanned came up as different books & they were declined. After manually entering the IBC code they were later accepted but this was a pain. Also, I have several books too old to contain and IBC Code. The AI Chat had no idea what to do about this so all those valuable, 1st edition classic books are sadly ineligible. Also, I haven't been paid yet so I have no clue how that's gonna go...we'll see??

Very simple.

The amount of books that would take was great. I also enjoyed how easy and simple it was to sell the books was I would 100% return to this site to sell my books.

Easy & Fast Transaction

Selling my used books was an easy & fast transaction. I originally bought books from World of Books so I decided to give selling my old books a try and was pleasantly surprised that it was a lot easier than expected.
