The purchase process was very easy, it took me 5 minutes to find AND purchase my book! I'm looking forward to using it this semester. :)
I was very pleased with this company. They quoted a price on a book, paid for the shipping, and sent me the money by paypal. No misrepresentations, no drama. I recently sold books to booksrun, who quoted a price and then cut it by 75%, and if you want out of the deal, they want 8 or 9 bucks to ship each book back to you. Instead of taking the higher quote at booksrun, just use ecampus, because you will get more money and less frustration in the long run.
Were on the hunt for a used textbook of a particular edition. These guys had just what we needed. We chose to buy the used book vs rent it. Arrived as described, pretty quick shipping. Not cheap, but less expensive than new!
One of the few places that had the right edition of the book we needed
Needed the textbook for daughter's college class
Site said book should ship within 2-3 business days. Once ordered, status showed "awaiting shipment from trusted partner". For two weeks. During the wait, the site was unable to provide any more specifics, or cancel the order because it was "in process". Finally received the book weeks after I ordered it, but too late to use in the class for which I needed it. Was able to get a partial refund once I received it and sent it back. Support was polite and did what they could as individuals within their policies. Book arrived in good condition once it finally arrived. I'd only order from the site again if it was a month in advance of when I needed it.

This site has repeatedly charged my classmates and myself for text books that in fact are not for sale.
Your business practice of posting materials sold months ago. Thankful it was posted on my schools information pages so other students don't wait weeks for a book that was never for sale. Twenty nine students have posted their troubles with your site.
Recorded and posted. Was told three different stories/excuses.
Desperation despite being warned by my professor.
Most products listed are not for sale. My roommate waited a week, was charged over $300,10 days later was notified none of the books listed by seller existed. Escam books has received several complaints through BBB.
I liked how you guys sent me emails knowing about my delivery and every step till the final destination it keeps my confidence up when it comes to paying and the overall prices for college textbooks are great cheap and affordable
It was good I used chat and they answered all my questions in a timely manner.
I choose campus.com due to the prices that you guys have for the textbook and the many options that you guys have either its an Ebook, renting textbooks, used textbooks or new textbooks. That for me is just great for me and great prices compared to my campus bookstore.
I choose this product for my class because I needed it but not only that the price helped mu budget
This is an easy website to navigate but always look at the price differences between rental and buying. Some books were only a couple dollars more to buy so I spent the extra 5 dollars to keep the books since you don't get your money back for sending them back!
Book descriptions vague (unclear if supplemental materials exist for textbook un the first place, had to contact a representative to confirm I was even ordering the right thing) and check out process awful. Coupon code did not work. Paypal integration didn't work.
I was forced to, as no other seller has the 7th ed of this textbook from Pearson as a physical copy.

I don't know that we have rental book until this ecampus come across on the google. Price is affordable and reasonable. You can choose rental time that cool. Delivery a little late but in time for my study. Packing very care and details the book is like new! I love it.
Affordable price and rental period.
Need for study
ECampus made it super easy to get the textbook I needed. The only downside was that it took over two weeks for it to be delivered so it came after my classes had already started which is a bummer. I definitely recommend ordering early!
Thank you! -eCampus
Not a good experience. Still have not received the package. I had to do all the legwork when talking to the representatives pointing out the lack of notification on shipping as well as the number of days since movement. Requested a full refund. We shall see if it comes in the next 3 to 7 business days. Otherwise I'll be disputing with the bank.
I felt like I had to do all the documentation and research. I had to point out the number of days since shipping as well as the number of days since lack of movement and I had to request the full refund. No offers were made.
Referred by a friend
I'm a little confused because I specifically chose the rental option, yet the text books I received are new. One of the books came in shrink wrap, and it indicated that if I was to write in it it would not be returnable. I rented the paper version so that I could highlight and take notes in the text as needed. This survey also asked me to "rate my purchase", but the receipt I was emailed does indeed indicate that both books were rentals. If someone could please reach out to me to clarify the issue that would be most appreciated.
Availability for the books I needed, and the price.
Required for my enrolled course.
Some rentals are new items, you can find more information regarding writing and highlighting on our help desk at https://www.ecampus.com/help/help-desk. Thank you for choosing eCampus!
My textbooks did not get to me on time. I called the customer service line several times over a week and never got a response. I sent several emails and only received a single, unhelpful response that didn't even answer my question. I would not recommend this site to anyone and will continue to tell people to avoid it due to this experience. There are numerous sources for students to find and buy textbooks.
Awful. Read my previous response.
I'll tell you one thing- I'll never choose it again.

You can't purchase or rent a textbook without creating an account, and that's partly just me hating when I have to create an account for every single online interaction or purchase. I also wasn't able to use a discount code that was displayed on every page, which turns out it was not available for use on most major publishers' textbooks, nor for rentals. I don't think I'll ever be satisfied with textbook prices; they always seem exorbitantly high, especially considering resale is the tiniest fraction of purchase price.
It was literally the only website that had this textbook available.
I was assigned this textbook by my professor, so I didn't exactly choose it.
Why do I need to create an account to buy a book? Additionally, I got a few pop-ups prompting me to enter a certain code for a discount, but then upon entering the code, it said it wasn't valid. Why even give me a code if it is not going to be honoured? If I navigated away from the payment process, I would have to start all over again. Very frustrating.
I didn't have a choice - it was literally the only website that had this textbook available.

The site was easy enough to use once I got the hang of it as a college freshman. I hadn't done book ordering before. Prices were good or better than other sites. I am very surprised and disappointed that three weeks later. I still don't have one of my books though.
Nobody can tell me when my book will arrive. At a minimum, I deserve to still receive the book but get like $20 credit or something
They were required for my classes
Thank you for choosing eCampus!
I ordered the book a few weeks ago and Ecampus let me know they did not find it in their inventory. They gave a refund to my credit card. Then yesterday it was delivered. The book is in great shape as this is a technical book, one you use continually while working the pattern and instructions. Over and over again. For years. Thank you for sending this.
Listed online as a holder of this hard-to-find book. Fingers crossed they are reputable as I had never heard of them.
I machine knit and collect books for the hobby. Many of the books can only be found on the Wayback Machine as they are from the 60’s, 70’s, 80’s, 90’s. Catherine Cartwright-Jones books are hard to find.
The site advertised that I would receive my books within 3 to 5 days and in actuality it took over two weeks to receive the books I needed because they didn't have any in stock, but I should have read. Print is what customer service told me.
The experience was easy and user friendly. The books were delivered just in time for school, although a PDF version of the first couple chapters would be helpful in the situations where assignments are due but the book hasn't arrived. This feature would be convenient especially since the books are paid for or rented out.
It was the first option I saw and had affordable options. I saved up to 300$ on books.
They are the materials I needed for my classes.
I'm very pleased and satisfied with the books I received and the condition they were in. The prices were one of the cheapest I could find across many different websites. I bought these for my daughter who is currently in college. Very happy with my purchase, will consider buying again from this website if I need to.
I chose eCampus.com for their great prices on the books.
I chose those specific products because of the current classes my daughter is enrolled in.
When thinking of books for a college class, I often think of how over priced books are and how expensive college is.
This website provides some of the best prices I have seen, but it takes longer than other sites to actually receive the books. That is the only down side.
Needed it for class

I highly recommend this book if you want to dive deeper into the world of business. The overall price I paid was great for the amount of material that is brought with the book and the delivery time came in quicker than what was anticipated.
The book I ordered for my Physical Science course was delivered to me in great condition. Despite the book being previously used, it is in seemingly perfect condition and it doesn't even look like it's been used before.
Awesome experience and nice quality book. None of the websites so tried carried the book. Finally able to find this on this site and cheaper as well. Great experience. Shipped right away and received it on time.
After a night of crying because of how expensive this one book was everywhere. I finally found Ecampus and loved it at first click. This book goes for upwards of 200$, so to be able to get it for so cheap is amazing. Thank you guys so much
The book I needed for WAYYYY too expensive
I had ordered book with priority shipping and it did not get sent in timeframe was told. They were awesome at reimbursing the priority shipping. They believe in customer service and its very appreciated!

Best prices and quickest ship time.
College class.
The site was easy to use to purchase my textbook for class. My book came in a timely manner and was in good condition. The price was a little expensive for just a rental book that I'm going to return at the end of the semester. Otherwise, it was a positive experience and transaction.
Even though it was expensive for a rental book, it was one of the cheaper rental prices I found.
Required for my class
The book is in great condition. It came quickly. It has 'rental copy' printed on the front of the book. I'm wondering if there is any difference in the rental copy and the actual copy. There was no description online about this.
It was the only option for this book.
It was required for the course and the most updated version of the book.
