121 books out of 200 books amateur Ordered 200 books on fast order. They just about got here on time. However, of the order, 121 of the 200 are poor quality and look amateur. They say there should be 1/16th leeway on the print but the title is clearly not straight and the spine formatting is not straight either, but is for 79 books? The rest are unsellable. They blame the publisher for their errors. Unacceptable and waste of time and money. Very poor. As for the generic response that is frustrating, annoying and unhelpful. Waste of space.

Totally nonexistent customer service Totally nonexistent customer service. I placed an order for advance copies of my book, and paid extra for rush service, which should have printed in 3 days. Now more than 2 weeks later I can't even get an estimated time to ship. Multiple requests to customer service go unanswered. I'm having a book release party with no book to actually show.

Lightning Source to Spark complete failure Total Spark database failure -- in an attempt to save money, we switched from Lightning Source to Spark, having had assurances that it would be seamless. It wasn't. Beginning on 5 March 2024 we tried to upload new covers for two of our books that we'd entered under the LS regime. Spark wouldn't take them, claiming "Imprint name already taken." Surprise! It's OUR IMPRINT THAT WE'VE BEEN USING SINCE 2011. But somehow, Spark's IT folks have been unable to flip the bits necessary to tell the Spark side that (all) our Saddle Road Press books belong to us. This has caused problems -- do I even need to say that email help has been, so far, useless? No answer, no fix -- and it's the 15th -- ten days of an unfixed problem. Two authors need review copies and we're unable to produce them. It's causing trouble. This is just nuts.

Ingram Rocks! My first job as a kid was working for Ingram Book Company sweeping and cleaning up after shipping. Honored to have them print my book The Puckford 7. Theres been a couple issues with cover alignment early on which they corrected. Such a nice book to hold in your hand Glossy Hard Cover or silky Matte Soft Cover! The new e-Commerce Links option is excellent if you would like to side step Amazon KDP. KDP Books are nice! Glossy! KDP has weird size requirements for HC. Work with a great set up house, watch You Tube videos how to upload and modify your files. Direct distribution via Barnes and Noble is pure gold. All the negative comments on here are from people who do not know what they are doing, or their book material is the problem and not Ingram. My books ROCK! Beautiful job printing inside and out! Shipping could be a little more speedier and books better packed if you are ordering one or two. Customer Service is very good with a speedy response!

Unreliable delivery. Unreliable delivery. I've received numerous notifications that my book package has arrived at the drop-off point, but at the drop-off point they tell me that they have not received my package. I've been there several times.
