Process was relatively painless....
The process was painless, relatively. Saved us lots of money since daughter was not intending on keeping books and new/used were quite pricey. Came quickly so she had them in time. BUT not sure if it was her college terms or what but they did not allow us to have for whole term; she still had 3 weeks in terms including finals and we would of had to extend for extra price. Speaking of.. when we did attempt to extend it would just give us an error. We decided just to return because she said she could go online if necessary for info this late in term. But other than that I would recommend just be wary of dates etc.
Awesome experience
Needed a book that I didn't need to own. Fast shipping. Great condition. Long rental for a great price. Free return and easy instructions. Quick to email to confirm they received the book back. Definitely recommended.
not very careful
flag your emails as important or they will go to spam and i won't see it for weeks and end up paying $100 more than planned.
Nickel & Dime - Lie - Scam
I had used BookRenter for quite some time without any issues until last semester. I rented a book that came with some marks/highlights and some water stains on the pages. It wasn't a significant issue to me and I was still able to use the book and read the pages, so I didn't think anything of it. I incorrectly assumed this would be a non-issue and that they'd already have documented the damage from the previous user. Unfortunately, that was not the case. I used the book, returned it in time, then was immediately charged more than $200 for damaging the book. When I contacted Customer Service to let them know that I definitely did not damage the book, they informed me that I was the very first to rent it. They told me the book was brand new when it was sent to me. I was livid and asked to speak with the manager. They said there was nothing they could do because I didn't report it within 21 days. I was never transferred to a manager, but instead they said they'd call me back later. They never did call me back (shocking!). They did, however, refund my money. I do not plan to do business with them again.
I'd encourage you to read the Customer Reviews on the BBB.org website before you rent.
