Easy to use app although there were a lot of books that were not wanted by we buy books. Excellent collection service and email updates but 2 weeks later still waiting for my cheque to arrive hence the score.

Your service is very good. Books are quick to scan, and admin instructions easy to follow. Pickup works very well. But, it is very frustrating that so many books are rejected. I have a lot of good books to sell.

You get slightly more than music magpie, and payment is more prompt and reliable.

The criteria for what is accepted in terms of condition at We Buy Books must have changed recently. Hardly any are accepted that have barely any surface marks, they are rejected, but are playable and useable. By all means lower the offer price but more items must be accepted, alternatively just state mint condition only will be accepted.

Very easy to follow process, fast & efficient. The only let down is the extremely low prices paid.

I think very little for what you sell and payment could be quicker.

Simple and easy to use to clear out old books to sell but don’t be fooled by the valuation offered. When I scanned all the barcodes it said my books would be worth £35 (all were new or as new). I ended up getting £18 once I posted and couldn’t be bothered to argue with it.

Very slow at processing book order. Waited weeks with the order saying en route.

I've recently sold piles of piano music to We Buy Any Books. The facility to send the books free and have them delivered to the company by Evri is convenient. It includes the facility to print off a label in the store. Being able to use the app to scan a bar code and then log the book on the app is great but when a book doesn't have a bar code, finding the book on the app's database isn't very reliable as the books don't appear to be in alphabetical order and inevitably I've found that they're not listed. I've then had to look up the ISBN numbers online and manually log them on the app. This is highly time consuming. The app occasionally doesn't recognise a bar code so the book can't be checked and logged on the site. I've discovered to my surprise that some of my books were only worth 15p! The most I've been offered is about £3 to £4. Many of my books were in pristine condition, some unused or brand new. Some were worth £35- £40 new and to sell them for a mere 15p seemed a trifle unfair! That said, it is great to be able to get some money back for books that need to find a new home. I have several boxes of books listed on the app as being "en route". After 10 days, I consider this to be very slow. I'm hoping that the process will speed up soon and the amount offered will be in my bank account before long!

Quick and easy service but some of their prices lately - as low as 5 pence - leave a lot to be desired.

The process was good and straightforward but no money yet but they are asking for a review! A bit premature I think!

The service was relatively swift (compared to ziffit or music magpie) but non app user like me (I don't use a smart phone) I don't get any benefit of app user code. Also acceptance of my book collection was very limited.

I would like a tick box when selling to say if the item is new or used as iv sold item still sealed and its not worth any more as I as the seller can't indicate its new. If iv sent an item and webuybooks feel its not worth what they have quoted you they just don't give you anything and if you want it back you have to pay. I feel abit more thinking could go into this as iv sent items before I felt they were OK but had the money amount taken off I don't feel it should be like this the system
