I was able to sell a number of books very easily and they were picked from my home on the day I chose. My only disappointment was in the number of books that were rejected

Good as new
Purchased a talking book off this company via Amazon. I love talking books but, in my experience, they tend to be few and far between, which is a great shame. Moreover, when I do buy them on-line, they tend to arrive in pretty grim condition, with a broken case or scratched discs or both. Not in the case of WeBuyBooks, however. The talking book arrived promptly, and both the casing and the discs were in excellent condition. Very pleasing. Rival companies should take note.

Easy to use.
What I liked about this site, was how easy it was. Scanned, Had a price straight away no waiting. Just boxed up, scanned the QR code at the drop off. Payment was very prompt. Will definitely use again. Thank you.

Problems scanning with the app
On the plus side, I really appreciate the fact that parcels can now be sent using Royal Mail rather than Evri (which was VERY unreliable) and payment is vry quick -- but I have not been impressed with the app. Sure, it makes it "easier" to scan rather than type in the ISBN, but not when I have to keep checking and correcting the data. I have sent six boxes of books and in each one there were at least two that gave the wrong title for the ISBN. When I realized, I tried a second scan (same) then had to check the basket and figure out which book was misidentified. A paperback "Little Women" went through as "Frankenstein" as one example. If it left the wrongly id-ed books in, the payment was reduced, with nothing for the actual books I'd sent.. a lot more trouble than doing the listings on my laptop!

Hello Lisa,
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback. We're really pleased to hear that you've found the switch to Royal Mail more reliable and that you've been happy with our quick payment process.
We're sorry to hear about the issues you've experienced with the app incorrectly identifying books after scanning. We understand how frustrating it is to have to double-check and correct titles, particularly when it affects the valuation of your order. This isn't the experience we want our customers to have.
We'll make sure your feedback is shared with our development team as we continue to improve our service. In the meantime, if you ever notice any discrepancies before sending your items, or have any concerns about a trade, our Customer Services team will always be happy to help.
Thank you again for your feedback and for continuing to use our service.
Best regards,
WeBuyBooks
