Easy, straightforward and if I get quality books as described and tracking information/updates it will be perfect!

It would have been nice to have not had to pay two separate shipping charges on my add on book order. So I just deleted it and only ordered one book.
Cheapest on google search

Easy to find things, like the tabs where you can choose editions and the different sorting possibilities.
Because I hate Amazon.
Date of experience: July 29, 2021
Do not understand how to apply the e-mailed savings coupons to my orders. Are they automatically applied?
No longer wish to do business with Amazon because they are committed to participating in cancel culture and censorship of traditional and conservative (real American) thought.

Ordered before & all was great. Just ordered again and assume it will be another positive experience.
Keeping it sort of local. I live in Michigan now but am from Ohio and my mother was born & raised in Toledo, OH.
