Unfortunately I was baited and then ripped off by "sellbackyourbook" aka "ziffit". When I first sold to them I sent them four books for their quoted price of $112. The transaction went smoothly and I was paid promptly with no problems at all. Because this went so smoothly I decided to send them more books the next go around. This time I sent 8 books total in two separate boxes. This is when they ripped the rug from under me. They ended up only paying me for 3 of 8 books. Claiming 5 of them were in such bad condition they could not offer me anything. These books however were in great condition much like the first box of books I sent them and they accepted with no problem. They went from them paying me the quoted price of about $160 to only paying $60 bucks. They also state their policy is to not return your books to you but they will "recycle" them to a third party. So you loose profit and they still gain from your loss. Luckily I hadn't sent off any of my other books to them yet or any high values books. Learn from my mistake and avoid doing business with this company if you can. I was able to find other companies to sell to, and I haven't had any issues since.

I DONT RECOMMEND, attempted to take my books and close my account to avoid pay out.

I sell textbooks and I recently discovered textbookrush. They had good reviews so I gave them a try. Had about 20 books ready I wanted to sell to them specifically. After packaging and the books and labeling them with the shipping labels they provided I dropped off the packages at the fedex and they scanned them in. Dropped off half on Sunday and Half on Monday. About an hour after I dropped off the second half. They emailed me and said they closed my account for fraud but did not provide a reason. I emailed them about it but they never responded. Luckily I was able to get my books from fedex before they were shipped. Or unfortunately I fear they would've just taken the books without pay. I decided to just stick to my usual sites for selling after this experience.

Hi Ty,
I took a look at your account, and it appears that our Fraud Department did respond to your email less than an hour after you contacted us asking for information on why your account was closed. As we mentioned in our response, your accounts were closed because you created multiple accounts to attempt to sell books in quantities that we do not accept, and our terms and conditions state that the use of multiple accounts is prohibited. If you have additional questions, please reach out to us at help@textbookrush.com.
Thanks,
John

This company is deliberately informing customers that their books have mold so they won't return...
