Textbook ManiacReviews of textbookmaniac.com

I am not sure why there are so many bad reviews... people are probably getting paid less due to the condition of their books. I gave Textbook Maniac one textbook and a textbook code (both in great condition) and they paid me what was promised fully in less than two weeks. They responded to my emails quickly too, always in less than 24 hours!! I would recommend them.

This website was true to quote and was very easy to use. It was quick and efficient and I had no problems at all selling my physics textbook to them. They offered more than a lot of other buyback websites as well. I will defiantly be using textbook maniac again.

I was cautious about this place due to reviews, but they gave me the highest offers for my books. Well, I followed the directions, I had good conditioned books, and I had a pleasant experience. From the day that I shipped my books to the day I got paid was 1 week, which is even faster than their estimated time. I did reach out for a question during the process and never got a response. But, that’s fine because I got paid what I was told I’d be paid. Worked fine for me.

I have been selling books to Textbook Maniac off and on for over a year and they are the best managed, most professional of all the buyback companies. They process buyback shipments quickly (usually within 3 days of receiving books) and sometimes pay the next day! Every time I have had reason to contact Textbook Maniac someone has responded within 1-2 hours with a satisfactory answer to my question or a more than acceptable solution to whatever it is that I need resolved. THIS COMPANY IS CONSISTANT IN THEIR OPERATIONS AND IN THEIR INTERACTIONS WITH ME!

After having an awful experience with another company I decided to try textbook maniac. I read the reviews on here and was a little reluctant but I had an excellent experience from beginning to end. I had a looseleaf book and made sure to leave it in the binder that I purchased to protect it and packed it the best I could to ensure it would not be damaged if thrown around by the carriers. It took about a week from when they received the book to receive payment but I received an email notification when I did. (I chose to receive via paypal.) Overall, an excellent experience and will be using them in the future.

Honestly at first the whole thing felt sketchy because it had been over a week since I shipped my package and I didn't receive some sort of email updating me on my payment. I checked the reviews on here and I started freaking out when everyone said the company was a whole scam and that they didn't receive their buyback money. HOWEVER, Textbook Maniac did mention that they had to fully evaluate and inspect the textbook to determine the buyback value, and of course they can't do that until my book got there. Can't blame them, I wouldn't want to pay someone until I see the actual product itself. I live in California and my textbook was delivered to Huntsville, AL, so no wonder why it was taking a long time for me to receive payment. Anyway it was little over a week and I finally got an email from Textbook Maniac saying they've received my book and have issued payment to me. The payment method I chose was PayPal. I received an email from PayPal saying that Infinity Books, Inc. had sent me my money and that I had to "Claim it by ________(insert date) or it will be returned to the sender". I did the steps to claim my money and I waited for 1-2 days to check my bank account to verify that I actually received the money. The money is in my account, and nothing sketchy seems to be going on and it doesn't look like they're trying to steal my money or rip me off. As for those who didn't receive their payment, I have no idea what went wrong for them. If you do decide to use this company to sell your textbooks, make sure you check your email (even your junk) for updates and READ IT THOROUGHLY. I had a window to claim my money so if you don't claim your money within the given days, it WILL be returned to the company and then you've basically just donated your textbook. Also track your package. Take a picture of your textbook and its condition before you send it (just in case they tell you that they received a damaged book, then you have proof it was damaged in the shipping process and not by you) and also pack it into a box in a way so that it won't get damaged. I also used USPS, which is insured. Don't use some form of cheap shipment then expect your books to get there the way you sent them. After reading other reviews it seemed that a lot had water damage and missing books, and idk if that's cause of the shipping process or some sketchy employee of the company. BUT, I was one of the few successful with using this company so that is why I am giving it 5 stars.This isn't a "fake" review.

No Problem. Fast Service.

After reading the negative reviews on this company I was hesitant to use them, but because they were the company who quoted me the highest for my textbook ($11.55) and the only one willing to purchase it without a minimum amount I decided I did not have much to lose by sending my book to them. I shipped it following the company's instructions and received an email 8 days later stating that the book had been received and payment issued. A few days later I received my check in the mail for the amount quoted. If I ever need to sell another textbook I will consider this company first.
