Do not order books with AbeBooks!! I ordered from 4 different buyers on AbeBooks and I only got one book delivered. I placed the order at the beginning of March and I have contacted the other three buyers about not receiving the books. I got NO RESPONSE!!!!!!! I contacted them a second time with the same results. I will never order books with AbeBooks again. In the past I have had good luck with them but not anymore.

I bought a study book for my Granddaughter I bought a study book for my Granddaughter. The order was via Mispah Books in Surrey, UK, and the book was sent from New Delhi. It arrived around 2 weeks sooner than expected, was very well packaged and is exactly what I ordered. I don't always give reviews but since I had read some negative reviews about Abe Books which made me feel a little worried about my expensive purchase I decided a good review was very well deserved. I am thrilled with the purchase and my Granddaughter was very excited to receive the book.

I ordered a new Lord of the Rings box… I ordered a new Lord of the Rings box set from AbeBooks (or one of its many retailers) for a birthday present. I was sent old prints with worn and torn covers (some of them taped back together), lots of underlining and markings and cheaply plastic wrapped. I wish I would have checked Trustpilot prior to ordering. Update as of 4/17/24: I did not have the same result as many of the other reviews I have read on here but I imagine that depends largely on the individual retailer contracted by AbeBooks. The retailer used by AbeBooks corrected my order and shipped me the new copies I had paid for. For that I changed my rating. I will still have to pay to return an incorrect order though so 4 stars seems appropriate.

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!
