While we don't verify specific claims because reviewers' opinions are their own, we may label reviews as "Verified" when we can confirm a business interaction took place. Read more
To protect platform integrity, every review on our platform—verified or not—is screened by our 24/7 automated software. This technology is designed to identify and remove content that breaches our guidelines, including reviews that are not based on a genuine experience. We recognise we may not catch everything, and you can flag anything you think we may have missed. Read more

Selling with WOB
WOB are easy to deal with. An online scan, an arranged pick-up and we're off to the races. Seamless really. If I'm honest though, the books I sell don't warrant much of a cash return and by the time I source or buy a box and then buy some parcel tape the remuneration I receive is even less. Can WOB offer a service that helps with that aspect?

Super easy scanning and editing of your books, window a little small to view whole basket though. Some extra mini insights would be good to help boost our book performances, almost like prompting us to action, but very good over all

First time user...
First time user.... I appreciated the emails letting me know my books had arrived, that they were being looked at and that the check was on the way. The only negative was that it seemed like it took a long time to get the check. Other than that, I would definitely recommend World of Books to family and friends!!!

Easy to use App
The App is easy to use, as is the use of Inpost to send the books to WSB. Payment is made reasonably quickly.
