Half Price Books 1002 West port Rd Kansas City Mo 64111 hpb.com Half Price Books Under Paying Customers For New And Expensive Books They Are Ripping People Off Kansas City Missouri
This review is for Half Price Books on West-port Kansas City Mo. I went in there to sell some books, movies and games. The books were Distributional Justice Theory and Measurement; Regional Anesthesia Analgesia and Pain Management; Malpractice and Medical Liability; 5 brand new paperback books; 1 wii game and 1 play station game. All the books are brand new and two of the books are listed on there website for the original going price of 184.00. Same book is listed on Amazon for 206.00. They are ripping people off and I think it is sickening. They didn't think I knew what my books were worth and tried to take advantage of me. Now I don't expect to get the full retail value but atleast a descent percentage and the fact that I had all that stuff and expensive books and they only offered me $13.00 when they are selling one of my books on their site for almost $200. I felt this needed to be mentioned, I bet they get a lot of people in there that don't know any better and will just take the price they give for the books. They have you go walk around while they make up these ridiculous prices. I am a reseller I buy merchandise by the pallet and I am always getting expensive books that I sell on ebay and amazon I went online to find a place to sell some of the books quicker and came across half price books, I called them and they said they couldn't give quotes over the phone and that they took all kinds of books but I would need to come down there in order to get a quote. I told them I would be driving far and needed them to at least quote one of my books and they declined so I drove down there and had my intelligence insulted with the price they gave of $13 please don't waste your time with this company, they are ripping people off like no tomorrow!
