I purchased a book through Abebooks…CUSTOMER BEWARE! I purchased a book through Abebooks (Hippo Books) on March 9, 2024. I never received the product. Their have been no updates from USPS. I have attempted to contact both companies via their website emails and phone. There has been NO RESPONSE to the emails and the both phone numbers just tell you to contact them via email with no way to speak to anyone or to leave a message. I will now have to resort to contacting my credit card company. Customer Beware!

My experience is likely unique My experience is likely unique. Aside from the slow delivery, the book arrived jammed into a bag that was too small for the book. When I attempted to remove the book, the dust cover was torn because the bag was as tight as a second skin around the book. Nothing can be done because the damage is my doing, however, it's also not OK the way the book was packaged for shipment.

Would give Abebooks 0 stars if I could Would give Abebooks no stars if this were possible. Bought a book in January and it never arrived. No one replied to my emails and there is no way to contact them. Please do not try to buy anything from them as nothing will come.

This website is a scam This website is a scam. Books order a month ago, not shipped. Customer service form seems to go nowhere. No operable customer service number. They are owned by Amazon, so I tried getting a number through them. Fail. I wouldn't buy from them or their parent company, who refuses to take responsibility.

Bait and switch This is a terrible way to get books. I have only used it twice and as it turns out the second time will also be a negative experience. First I ordered an out of print book . Cost over 50 $. What I received was a trashy romance novel, used, in poor shape and not the book about Nazis in LA. now I atemted to order Percival Everett's book I am not Sidney Portier but when the order was complete it gave me some other title I was neither looking for nor attemted to order. I am really irritated. Every time they replace a high price item with something of considerably less value. Will never use them again. Use thriftbooks instead Always a good experience.
