ThriftBooks Questions & Answers

You should think twice before paying international postal rates and customs fees for used books.

They do not accept checks or money orders. You need to use credit, debit (cards), or PayPal.

It sounds like a question you need to ask them directly.

When this happens, just tell them and they'll give you a refund. Books are sent via USPS, so good luck with a tracking number. Very occasionally they will lose a shipment, and this is not Thriftbooks' fault.

Library Binding is a term used for books that are in large print.

I donate my books to the library for their book sale

I ordered through the ThriftBooks website. They send me an order confirmation email. Then they send me shipping confirmation email with tracking. Shipping confirmation emails may be sent separately for each book if they come from different locations. If you keep track of the emails, you know exactly what the situation is for your order. I have ordered over 30 books, have check on the status often, and had no problems. I'm not sure what happens if you don't have email, but is that a possibility in this day and age? If you ordered by phone, I'm not sure why you didn't call them for the status.
