Reply to comment by Resurgemus in Used books store? by beetletoman

Book Trader screwed me over - I dropped off a several boxes of fairly recent literature type fiction (my wife had just finished her MFA) that they assured me they would go through and get back to me when they weren't so busy. They blew us off for the first few phone calls (spread out over about 6 weeks), and when I remembered three months later and called them they told me they had rejected and donated most of the books (without calling me as they assured me they would), but I had $20 of store credit for a couple of the books they stole. I never went in to collect it, but if you go there and tell the manager/buyer that they are an ass you are welcome to it with my blessing.

Had a similar experience myself earlier this year, FYI. Wish I had had read something like your comment before I dropped off all my boxes and known to try another route if I wanted to recoup any of the value of what I offloaded, so good on you for posting this here.
