Abebooks Promo Code 15% Code January 2022

Excellent customer service. I ordered a book from AbeBooks when it was not available on Book Depository. After 2 months of book not being delivered (it is a worldwide pandemic, so I was giving it some extra time), I inquired about it via email. AbeBooks replied within 24 hours, notifying me that because they cannot confirm in their system my book was delivered, it was assumed lost and they issued a refund to me. Only a few days later—the book arrived! I emailed AbeBooks asking what should I do next, how to pay for a book I received a refund for and their reply was to keep and enjoy the book and perhaps donate the same amount to a charity of my choice.

amazing books I really don't know what the bad reviews are talking about

Ordered several books from bahamut media all in excellent condition for second hand books and at great prices.

Neutral when it comes to abebooks. But I’m not sure if I will be using abebooks a lot as much as amazon or will use it as a long term.Most of the orders I placed did not come with tracking number which makes me very nervous. I don’t really know if sellers really shipped them or pretend they did. Two books I ordered have arrived safely. One of them had tracking. The seller didn’t give me it until I messaged them about it. The rest, I hope it arrives like the other two with no problems.

Had a good experience with abe books. Bought two nice books for only 4 dollars each including shipping. Shipped fast. Dont know how the sellers can make any money but I am very happy with my books would buy again. Im not going to school, just educating myself. Thank you to the sellers and abebooks.

They always have the books you need. They also always offer international edition textbooks also, which are much cheaper compared to the regular version. Best prices, fast shipping. My go to website for textbooks, hands down. As a student, they have saved me hundreds if not thousands over the years. 10/10 recommend.

I needed access to a rare book for research purposes and because of COVID, couldn’t go to my usual libraries in the U.K. I decided to see if I could buy one, as it would be something I would like to own, and came across Abe Books in my online searches. The website said they could supply. I didn’t realise Abe Books was a ‘platform’ site and that my order would go through other booksellers. However, I’m pleased to say that the book arrived today and is exactly as described. I have been kept informed of my book’s journey from the US to the U.K. via the tracking system. So, on this basis, I give a 5* rating to Abe Books as I’ve not encountered any problems.

I have use Abes Books UK often & found them to be quite satisfactory. Accepting they are a broker and if/when the original seller does not provide a good level of service Abe's have been good in refunding and/or resolving the issue

I have been buying from Abe Books for a number of years. I can honestly say that I have only had a positive experience each time.

Purchase Order No. 625503729I ordered The Cambridge Encyclopedia of Language from Bahamut Media on Feb 4, 2021. The book arrived today, Mar 17, 2021, around a week later than estimated but it is totally understandable considering the pandemic situation. The book was described as being "Very Good" but it probably can be categorized as a "Fine/Like New" book! Great first experience with Bahamut Media! Thank you, AbeBooks and Bahamut Media!

Purchase order no. 625452379I ordered Encyclopedia of Evolution, Encyclopedia of Earth and Space Science, and Encyclopedia of Physical Science from ThriftBooks-Chicago on Feb 4, 2021.All of them arrived in a timely manner and there is nothing wrong about the first book; however, I received only the second volumes of the other two books – I didn't receive the first ones.I sent an inquiry to ThriftBooks-Chicago, and Melanie from the Customer Service team responded to my email very quickly, explaining that it occurred due to both volumes in each set having the same ISBN & their database reading the single book's ISBN number as being a full set volume collection. She also informed me that they didn't have the first volumes to send to me and had issued a full refund for both books without me having to return them (she had also taken action to prevent future issues by asking for those listings to be removed from the catalog).Great issue handling, so I'm still giving 5 stars! Keep up the good work, AbeBooks and ThriftBooks!

Purchase Order No. 625062482I ordered The Encyclopedia of Mammals and Why Geology Matters from Irish Booksellers on Jan 29, 2021. The former arrived two days ago, on Mar 9, 2021, and the latter yesterday, on Mar 10, 2021 – both landed in my home in a timely manner.Irish Booksellers has been one of my favorite sellers on AbeBooks. All their pre-loved books are labeled with "Used/Acceptable", which could confuse customers by prompting such a question as "Isn't what is acceptable for you necessarily acceptable for me?" I did ask them about this and here is the answer from Sarah Irish:'"Used/Acceptable" means that there islikely to be writing/highlighting, it may be ex-library, and/or thedust jacket may be missing. We cannot guarantee the availability ofsupplemental materials for any used book, including access codes.'I think the explanation is still not specific enough. For example, how much writing/highlighting do customers need to expect to be in the books? That said, my overall experience has been magnificent. The condition of Why Geology Matters, for instance, exceeded my expectation – I would categorize it as a "Fine/Like New" or even "New" book. Nevertheless, I was somewhat surprised at the condition of The Encyclopedia of Mammals as it has been damaged by some kind of liquid and (many/most of) the pages are wavy because of that. It is not so bad though, but I am still wondering if this book really falls under their "Used/Acceptable" category. I have sent an inquiry to Irish Booksellers about this; however, regardless of what their response will be, I am still giving 5 stars to AbeBooks and Irish Booksellers for their excellent services (If Irish Booksellers thinks it is a mistake and, say, gives me a refund, I will be very, very, very impressed and love this bookseller even more!).

Purchase Order No. 623517253I bought National Geographic Dinosaurs and Darwin's Universe from Irish Booksellers on Jan 7, 2021. Both books arrived within the expected timeframe and the book conditions are as described!Irish Booksellers is a wonderful bookstore; I've always been satisfied with the service. I'm wondering why they have no profile here on TrustPilot. Anyway, huge thanks to AbeBooks and Irish Booksellers! Keep up the good work!

I ordered a book via Abebooks from the bookseller "Ergodebooks". Like most customers who complain that they never received their book... I never got mine. After 6 weeks waiting, I asked the bookseller for a refund. They didn't reply. After placing a refund request on the site of Abebooks, I got an email from Abebooks 8 days later saying the refund had been processed. I checked my bank account every day and got nervous as I didn't see any refund. The refund appeared only on the 4th day, although it had been processed by Abebooks 4 days earlier (how can bank transactions be so slow!) So, long story short: Abebooks is honest. The bookseller mentioned above, mmmh... it's very strange that so many of the books they send never arrive.

AbeBooks is a terrific site for used books. Plenty of novels published a few years ago are listed under $4 dollars! And these cheap copies are usually ex-library books in pristine condition (be warned, there are more than a few stickers plus tape; apply heat before pealing). It takes about 1.5-2 weeks to receive a book. Occasionally the covers are different than what's shown in the photo but I attribute this problem to individual sellers rather than AbeBooks. It's the seller's responsibility to provide a photo and indicate the edition. If you're ordering books for school, be sure to order early. Obscure works or textbooks may take longer to arrive.
