I don't recommend selling to them I don't recommend selling to them. The shipping label they send is for Media Mail, which is notoriously unreliable. They quoted me an unbelievably high payout, so I picked them over other options. Well, Media Mail made it all the way to Huntsville AL, which is where Textbook Maniac is located and then... stopped updating tracking. I'm pretty sure the package was delivered without being scanned, but Textbook Maniac told me they never got it. I emailed them several times and got contradictory responses.

Stole my book!!! I sent two books to textbook maniac. They emailed me informing me they didn’t receive the expensive book and have adjusted the total to the cheap one. I packaged both my books in the same box with the packing slip as the directions say. They have a great scheme going over there. I contacted the company and they say that they have many people check the boxes and cannot do anything. This is stealing!!! I have sold books through various other companies and never had any issues especially like this!

Theyll steal your books and say theyre… Theyll steal your books and say theyre severely damaged then hold them hostage for a $4 shipping charge. Dont sell here, youll just lose your stuff or your money. Reply from Textbook Manic (AKA Textbook Crooks): "Maybe it was damaged in transit." The book was packed in a sturdy box with bubble wrap and sent off in good condition. Yet somehow it arrived with "severe damage with staining and water wrinkling." Either TM needs to find themselves a better shipper that won't leave packages out in the rain or they are crooks who stole my book, got out of paying me $50, & got to re-sell the book for a hefty markup. Burn your old textbooks before you let these people steal yours for a profit.

Criminals and Scammers I have not received payment after waiting over 3 weeks. There are several other 1 star reviews detailing a similar experience as mine. The textbooks will appear 'in transit' for a long time. Then eventually they are deemed 'damaged' or something along those lines. The company will then refuse to send the books back and you are left without your books and without your money. This is a criminal enterprise masquerading as a legitimate business. Save your money, save your books, and avoid these bottom feeders.

Don't send them your books, they are theives!!! I wish I could leave less than 1 star. I sent them my perfect condition textbook (that I originally bought from my university) and they claimed that my book was "counterfeit" and that they could not pay me for it but also could not send it back to me because it's "against their policy". Even after providing proof of purchase from the bookstore they still would not pay for or return my book. DO NOT SEND THEM YOUR BOOKS THEY ARE CROOKS AND THEIR "POLICY" IS STEALING FROM COLLEGE STUDENTS!!!!
