"All students at our trade school are being ripped off by TextbookX/Akademos. They raise the price $40-200 per book compared to Amazon and eBay because half of us use state grants which can only be used through the website's voucher. The school forces us to use them, or pay out of pocket on another website. We can't afford to pay from a closed system that charges more than tripple the marketplace!! Additionally, books take 1-4 weeks to arrive when ordering from them. I've sold books on TextbookX and am requiered to mail it within 24 hours...so why isn't TextbookX held to the same deadline to ship a book? Customer service is so clueless that they wanted MY username and password when my orders weren't showing up under "recent purchases." Absolutely disorganized and overpriced business compared to any competitor."
