User Reviews

Reviewers praise ThriftBooks for its vast, affordable catalog and fast shipping, plus useful features like choosing book condition and a buyback option. However, they frequently report misrepresented conditions, slow or damaged shipments, app instability after updates, and inconsistent customer service. The app is attractive for budget-minded readers and seekers of niche titles, but reliability and quality control remain recurring concerns.

Pros

Large, diverse inventory including hard-to-find, out-of-print, and rare titles.
Very affordable prices and overall good value for used books.
Ability to choose the book's condition and rely on condition descriptions.
Buyback/sell feature with competitive offers.
Fast, reliable shipping and delivery (often quicker than estimated).

Cons

Condition descriptions often not accurate, with books arriving in worse condition than listed.
Shipping can be slow, and some orders arrive damaged or with library markings that affect condition.
App instability after updates; crashes or access issues can block use.
Customer service responsiveness can be difficult or unhelpful at times.
Quality control inconsistencies, including mislabeling or poor handling slipping through listings.

Recent reviews

The new update requires iOS 26 which my phone cannot do. This makes it impossible to use the app now with an older phone.

I ordered four books and two of them came damaged. The books were not in a box and instead came in a bag. Since it came in a bag they got damaged. One of the book had a damaged from cover and the first few pages were also damaged. For the second book the side of the spine and some pages were damged.
