Easy and efficient!
The process of selling my books on World of Books could not have been easier. The scan shows immediately if they accept the book, and if so, how much they'll pay for it. Combined with the free shipping to send the books, it was better than I'd hoped for.

10/10 experience
10/10 experience! I’ve had my old college books for over 2 years and didn’t know what to do with them. When I was looking for a way to sell them, I found world of books. The process was nice and easy! You take a picture of the barcode and then they tell you the price and then you have to ship it yourself. I paid around $16 to ship at my local shipping store but that’s because I didn’t use my own boxes. I let the shipping store do everything. Once it got to World of Books, I got my pay within a week. And my other order took about 3 weeks to be paid. Overall flawless and so easy to use!

World of Books was so easy to work with! They kept me updated when my books were received and when to expect payment. I was able to de-clutter and make a bit of cash!

A great way to declutter and earn a little extra along the way. Love the easiness of being able to scan the bar code or input manually and immediately know what you can get for it.
