I recently sold over $200 worth of used books to five different used book companies. This was the only company that once they received my books downgraded than their offer based upon the following reason: Adjustment Reason: Book with an odor (smoke, musty, etc.). Mind you I do not smoke, no one in my home smokes and 6 of the 9 books I sold to this company were downgraded for this reason. In addition 5 of those 6 books were the books with the highest quotes on them. All of my books are kept in my office and most were only used once for a paper at school. These books were in my opinion in pristine condition. I will never sell another book to this company. I just hope I receive my promised payment after this negative review. Seller beware

Response from CKY Books· Feb 20, 2015
Hi Greg. I am sorry your experience with us was not what you expected. The items we purchase must meet certain condition requirements. Unfortunately the items we received from you did not meet those requirements. After seeing your comment I went to check on these books myself to see if there was anything I could do for you. Unfortunately they do in fact have a very strong musty odor (not smoke), like they have been stored in a damp basement or something, this was the reason your payment was reduced. Our condition requirements are laid out on our site here: http://www.ckybooks.com/book-condition-policy/

In February 2015 I sold books to CKY and was very pleased with the experience. I received prompt email notifications when the package I sent was received, processed (opened and assessed), and when payment was sent. The package was processed and I received my payment via paypal the day after the package was received. Speedy! Also, the final price they paid me for each book was as much as I was quoted. I'm a happy customer.
