I find the World of Books very easy to Use
I find the World of Books very easy to use and I am allowed to sell books if I feel the Price is ok. Its probably the easiest of all the sites to use and generally gives the best value for books. The presentation in the site is excellent and very encouraging. The idea of the shelf is good. I will continue to use.

Fast processing of books. I like that I didn’t have to download an app. The whole scanning and creating a label to ship was easy.

You can never get through to them
You can never get through to them. The live chat is just a link to FAQ and it is not possible to leave a message. They lost a CD of mine and never bothered to get in touch. Also the referral scheme doesn't track properly.

So simple
This was so easy and everything went through very quickly. Great to know that my books will have a second chance to bring joy to someone else and have made me a bit of money. They won't take everything but accepted about half the books I scanned.

Very easy to do
Very easy to get a value for your books with your phone which reads the barcodes. Then just box them up and send.

Sent 10 books but was only paid for 8. No option to chase it up or dispute. Would rather give to charity.
