I bought a book in "very good condition" from the seller. Instead I got a book of very poor quality and not as described by seller. I felt cheated and taken for a ride. So I contacted the World of Books for a refund. The seller asked for pictures of the book as If I were a liar. Then, he kept mute. When I contacted him again, the rep replied that he was sending a replacement copy. I declined and responded that I could not wait any longer and demanded my money. Seller refused to issue any refund. He ignored my request. Seller is a crook. The matter is not yet resolved.

My response to Rebecca:
Rebecca, you are lying brazenly. I refused to have a replacement because it was going to take too much time and I could not wait any more. I also have no faith in your company. You already took me for a ride and I feel cheated. You demand pictures of the book because you won't believe me as if my words were not enough. You took me for a liar. You did not breathe a word about the refund because you chose conveniently to dump your shoddy stuff on me. In fact, I had promptly emailed you that I did not want a replacement as it was going to take another fortnight for the book to reach me, and I could not wait that long. I live in Houston, Texas, USA.

I am asking for a complete refund. Please have the decency to issue me a refund. Stop behaving like cooks, liars and cheats.

Buy from World Of Books! I definitely recommend it

I purchased a book on Worldofbooks Inc Amazon storefront on Thur, Oct 29th, the order marked as shipped on Thur, Oct 29th, but the company never shipped the item and did not provide the shipping tracking information. I have sent several emails regarding my order shipment issue, but neither my issue got resolved nor my questions have been replied to date. It seems that Worldofbooks Inc is a fraudulent company. Based on my experience, I would suggest other buyers be cautious about the business practice of the Worldofbooks company. Very disappointing shopping experience.

I've not got a bad word to say about this site. Books are always great quality, arrive in a few days and amazing price. Thanks for all the books so far!

I'm glad to see so many happy customers but, I have not had any response to my complaint. I received a very dirty old library book, I actually don't want to touch it. Blackened paper edges and pages yellowed with age. English library emblem on the inside cover. Be nice to receive some indication that my matter has at least been acknowledged and being assessed.?
Have never received an email confirmation of purchase re: no receipt.

I am a huge fan of World of Books. I came across them when searching for a book on eBay, and since then I use their website directly. I have been buying all of my books here for the past year, both for myself and as gifts. Every time I need/want a new book, I first search in World of Books and they almost usually have it! Their website is very easy to navigate and they have so many options. I have never had any problems with them, and books always arrive on time (maximum a week after purchase). Obviously you are buying a second-hand product, so what you receive is not new, but I am generally very happy with the condition of all of the books.

World of Books is a great option if you are trying to be more eco-friendly and are keen on a more circular economy. They buy from local charities, donate and recycle any books they can't sell, and keep millions of books from ending up in landfills. And it's good for your pocket too. I couldn't be happier for discovering them!
