eCampus.com Reviews Summary

The company has garnered a generally positive reputation, with customers frequently praising the affordability, quality, and timely delivery of their textbooks. Many users appreciate the ease of use of the platform and the availability of digital content, which enhances their overall experience. However, concerns regarding shipping delays and issues with receiving incorrect items have been noted, leading to some frustration among customers. While the rental process is typically smooth, the inconsistency in delivery times and occasional miscommunication about order fulfillment suggest areas for improvement in customer service and logistics.

Great experience!
February 15, 2026

Simple process. And the book arrived as expected, in great condition, despite a severe winter storm across the country. Very happy!

Late shipping
February 15, 2026

I like how I can rent a textbook and just mail it back in when I am done with the semester. The only complaint I have is that I paid for expedited shipping and it came late, I could've just saved my money and paid for regular shipping... won't ever do this again.

Pretty good but unsure of return policy
February 14, 2026

Renting the book was nice and came perfectly fine, but I got lost on the refund policy since I'm not sure if my rental is a 25-day return or a short-term rental of 15 days return.

Unable to contact them
February 14, 2026

I was locked out... and there is no way to contact anyone to get support - no email or phone provided if you aren't logged in. And the chatbot never answered my inquiries on multiple days. Had to go to Facebook to direct message to get my problem resolved. Not good service.

I ordered a book and paid extra for expedited. My order was "awaiting fulfillment for 14 days before I requested a cancellation. You only ever get an AI bot too, never an actual customer service representative. I had to request a cancellation and refund. Have no idea how long that will take. I also had to order the book elsewhere for more money as my daughter needed it right away. I will never use eCampus again.

Avanti
February 13, 2026

Terrible. I wanted to cancel right away and you wouldn't let me. I had to wait for the book to arrive and then return it for a refund. Absolutely ridiculous as it was about 5 minutes after I placed the order that I realized I didn't need to rent it.

Never used eCampus before. My first experience with this company has been great. The book was easy to order. Arrived in the timeframe stated by them. The book itself was in excellent condition when it arrived. Wonderful experience, thus far. We just need to return it to them by the date they stated (end of my daughter's semester at college" but already we have a link to an address label to make that process easier and convenient in the near future.

Overall thoughts
February 13, 2026

There is writing in the side of the book as well as some notes and papers that were left inside by a previous owner or owners. The book was well packaged and in good condition.

The service is fine but expensive.

My previous experience was the same as this one. I'm delighted that the book I need is stock however it is expensive, even more so coupled with shipping.

The site kept telling me to use a discount code, then wouldn't let me use it. I emailed and it was explained why I couldn't use it. I was given an in-store credit that I hope we'll be able to use.

Stress.
February 12, 2026

I ordered my books new, paid, then read reviews which then stressed me out. Could not get ahold of customer service on call and email took a week. The books did come brand new along with the access card.

Delayed delivery
February 12, 2026

The delivery of this item was continuously delayed. Every time I opened to check the status, it would say "delivering today" and then it would be pushed to the next day. Eventually, weather delays caused the book to be delivered about 6 business days after I ordered it, despite paying for expedited shipping.

Return policy for rentals
February 11, 2026

My son had returned his textbooks late due to snow snowstorm. We charged a late fee which was more than the cost to rent the book and after I complained I only received half the money back from the charge. I had used the service again it was the only service that offered reasonable prices for digital books
