Totally Fraud...

I have placed many orders through the discover books through the eBay.com but few of them were never received. I did contact them through the eBay but still no resolution received at all. I want my money back on all of those orders which are not received to me.

Truly a scam

Truly a scam. We used their services to pick up scrapped books. One day the bin was gone and we have received no payment. Attempts to reach them have been met with silence and now emails are returning as blocked.

Closed. But continued to take orders.

Discover Books continued to take orders as a marketplace seller through a major retailer as late as March 14. But evidently they had closed operations on March 11. And now Discover Books will not answer queries about refunds or the missing orders. Dishonest.

I ordered a book

I ordered a book, they sent me a revised version. They have the " widow's son " , by Billy Dickson advertised and then are sending people his revised edition. The "widow's son" by Billy Dickson was taken off the market by life rich publishing in 2022 as the book was illegaly printed , so it shouldn't be advertised at all. That's why discoverbooks.com are false advertising and sending people a revised edition when that's not what they ordered. I can see the scam that they are attempting. They then tried to tell me the original version is out of stock when the truth is the book has been taken off the market. When I asked for a refund I am now receiving all sorts of weird response.Up to date no refund has been issued and I have been given all different reasons and the run around.

Takes too long to receive your order

Takes too long to receive your order. I placed my order on Jan.5 and it's Jan.9th and my items still haven't shipped. I contacted customer service today and they apologized, but said it would be another 1-2 days before my order shipped. I work out of town and don't know when I will get an assignment to leave so it's important that I get my items when expected. I will not be ordering from them again. 1/10/2024 Received an email from them with no confirmed shipping date and no mention that 4 of the 7 books I ordered were sold out. I went to the website to discover my books were sold out. I cancelled my order. Don't do business with them, it is just a waste of time.

Wrong order received but good customer service

I ordered an engineering text book and received a children story instead. It is my first time buying from Discover books and I am truly unhappy about it. I tried contacting the customer service. We will see if they respond.Edit: the customer service responded quite fast. They apologized for the error and I got a refund for my order as they didn’t have the book anymore. So I moved my rating experience from 1 to 3 stars due to their good customer service. I think I will give discoverbooks another chance with a new order. Hope I won’t get the wrong order next time!

Horrible

Horrible. USE AT YOUR OWN RISK!! The first couple of times I got the wrong book I thought it was a mistake. At this point Im convinced they dont have the books they claim to and just ship whatever on hand and hope customer gives up. Won't send what you order. USE AT YOUR RISK!!

Not once have I ever been sent the correct book. They list one thing and then just send whatever they can find because they lie on the book descriptions. This is a horrible business.
