Half Price Equals Fraudsters Inc
Once again the incompetent faux booksellers at HalfPrice sent me a book that was inaccurately described This of course is a mark of commodity aestheticism bookselling incompetence and outright fraud The book was ex-library though this was of course not noted as is HalfPrice s tendency since they are to lazy to do anything other than cut and paste descriptions Since I don t have a printer I can t print the return label and I can t copy it and send it to someone to do it for me The incompentents at HalfPrince of course want me to pay a dollar for a prepaid return label so I can return a book I would never have bought if It had been accurately described I will no longer be buying books at Half Price something I have done since the 1980s Up yours HalfPrice and good riddance I will be reporting you to the NY AG Have a pollyanna happy faced day

INACCURATE Condition
LOUSY seller Said book condition was good I expected some writing What I got was less than acceptable WRITING ON EVERY SINGLE PAGE OF TEXT - practically every line Book wasn t worth the cost of shipping it back They would only refund purchase price even though they falsified the condition EXTREMELY UNHAPPY Will not trust to buy from them in future Shop elsewhere

Having spent thousands of dollars over
Having spent thousands of dollars over the past few years and being a loyal customer I find myself not wanting to go back Taking books into sell because I am in a current financial hardship and them not even coming close to giving me what they are worth is a massive insult I had to take the money because I have no other choice right now and the lack of compassion by some of the staff just put a massive bad taste in my mouth Of course I am biased because I know the worth of the items I brought in yet I think they would not know true value if it bit them in the ass What a joke I do not have any plans on buying anything from them again when I get back on my financial feet I am sure they won t loose any sleep or care about my review but whenever asked about them in the future I will not say good things
