CKy's website is easy to use and enter ISBNs. Quick pay. I love to see CKY come up on my scanner.

It took less than 2 days for them to process and pay for my books. I also liked the way they sent you an email with updated info.

Where were you guys when I was struggling through college?? You give me great prices and great service! Who could ask for more? You guys are the BEST!!!

Since your new web site only allows anyone to process a maximun of 4 books at one time, I've had to take most of my business to your competitors, even though your prices could be better. I just don't have the time to see what prices you're paying at 4 books at a time. I've sold you several hundreds of books in the past and thought your company was GREATto deal with up until now. I think you went from the BEST book buyers to one of the worst overnight. I had hoped things would be even better with the new web site, but unfortunately they are NOT. I really don't understand why you would want to change to make it so extremely difficult for someone with a lot of books to sell since used books is your business??

Response from CKY Books· Aug 5, 2014
Hey there RT. Thank you so much for the input! You weren't the only person who had mentioned that. That is why earlier today we changed the functionality of the ISBN entry box on the main page. You can now add up to 30 ISBN(s) at once. When you get a chance head on over and check it out, we would love to have your business back. We always try to listen to our customers and improve and adapt our services. Maybe if you like the change you can come back here and revise this three star rating. Hopefully you will like it. Let us know if you have any other thoughts about our services...we do listen. Best wishes, CKY Books
The CKY gave clear instructions on how to package and send the books, and I didn't even have to pay for shipping. The process was quick, easy, and my check was issued within a week.

CKY Books took care of my sale really quickly. Their step by step communication was great. I knew where they were in the process at all times and I received my check very quickly as well. I would recommend CKY Books to anyone who needs to sell back textbooks.
