"I am a new customer and was very pleasantly surprised at the good service and value from a1techbooks. Will order from you again, keep up the good work and good prices.
"The store is on the east coast, I'm on the west coast and I recieved the book in 5 days, which is pretty good. The price was great: 50% less than competitors. Book was in mint condition. I have no complaints. Excellent!"
"I ordered 2 books and realized very soon after that I had put in an incorrect mailing address. Somehow I was able to contact them and they corrected the problem. Thanks A1books.com. Their prices are unbeatable. The only problem I have now is that my credit card won't go through (the same one i used to make a purchase earlier this year) and I have NO success logging in and finding any customer service link or email address."
"I ordered a rather popular, but discontinued book through Alibris. This item was held and sold by A1books.
I received the item in a timely manner and in excellent description.
The problems I've read on reviews, do not surprise me, I've ordered from Alibris before - and various sellers sometimes don't ship what they claim they do. But I've never had that happen with A1books, when shipping from Alibris. "
"So I am writing this review because I had a surprisingly good experience with a1books. I was looking for a good digital camera and came to their website through a coupon site. i had never heard of them so i was highly skeptical to spend so much money. i googled them and came to this site - which made me rrrrreeeeealllly think about it...but then i happened to speak to mention it to a friend who had bought a webcam from them before and had a great deal - so i decided to give it a shot - because these reviews were mostly about books and i thought maybe electronics is handled by a different division.
Either i was really lucky or i was really right - the camera - a nikon coolpix p80 - was a good $20 cheaper than any place else - got to me in 3 days of my order in fantastic condition. Needless to say, I am happy!"
"Surprisingly good experience, especially with all the negative reviews I read about this dealer.
I ordered a book for school that was close to $30 cheaper than anywhere else I could find it so I thought I might as well take the risk and see if maybe all the reviews I read were just unlucky.
Ordered on the 3rd they said processing would take 5 days, got an email saying it was shipped on the 8th. Shipping took a little long as it was shipped via standard shipping but still landed within the 14 day expected shipping time given by the dealer.
Pros: Very cheap books!
Cons: Slow shipping and no tracking number for orders.
"Not only was this company no problem, but the audio book I ordered was by far the best price out there. Would deal with them again. I am surprised at the number of people with negative reviews here. Again, I 'suffered' only good things from them."
"I would like to follow up to the review posted below. I would like to amend this review and let you know how the situation ended. Within one hour of writing the review and sending a request on the website, I received a response back. A1Books was very willing to work with me. I sent pictures of the item that I received, and by the next day, I had an answer back that they were refunding my money and allowing me to keep the lunch bag that had been sent as a peace offering. It was not the fault of A1Books. The lunch bag had already been packaged by Built NY when it was shipped to A1Books and happened to be incorrectly labeled. I am very impressed with their customer service, and would absolutely do business with them in the future. They were very easy to work with."
