Customer Service Hall of Shame

by scoffic , Jan 30 '08
Terrible service. I ordered a couple of books as Christmas gifts last year from Powells.com. After my books did not arrive for several weeks I contacted them and their response was, "We show your books were delivered on" such and such a date. "We hope ...

I will definitely shop at Powell's again. I am quite pleased with my order

by luvbiobooks , Sep 20 '07
Powell's is the greatest. I live in New York City, and I had looked all over in every borough (Bronx, Queens, Brooklyn and Manhattan) for out of Print Books and a DVD. No one had them used or new. Surfing the web, I came across Powell's, not only did ...

The best place to buy books and ebooks online

by fitzkissa , Mar 31 '07
Powell's is one of the few "name brand" bookstores on the web that still carries ebooks, so they pretty much get all of my business. I'm an ebook fanatic because they store so easily. Barnes and Nobles stopped carrying them, then Amazon did, but good ...

SLOW - I think they're all smoking dope!!! Typical West Coast Attitude

by jlrohio , Jun 16 '06
This company is not who you want to turn to when you are in need of a book rather quickly trying to save money and trying to prevent being ripped off by the college bookstore! I order 4 books off of 4 different web sites on the same day (a Tuesday) ...

For finding used/new/out-of-print books under one roof, Powell's is my first stop.

by morilla Epinions Most Popular Authors - Top 1000, Mar 21 '05
Powell's City of Books in Portland, Oregon is my "go to," bookstore for finding obscure and/or favorite titles. Not exclusively an used bookstore, Powell's has an excellent selection of often hard-to-find books. If you can use Amazon.com or ...

Maybe a deal here and there...

by niners2004 , Dec 27 '04
Powells.com is an alternative to more popular sites such as amazon.com when it comes to purchasing books. While you may find an occasional surprise here, the quality of this site simply doesn't match some of its competitors. The product selection of ...

Worst place for TEXTBOOK hunter

by bwarakorn , Aug 29 '04
I do totally not recommend this merchant if you are a person who is looking for a textbook for your class. Because most students want their textbooks to arrive in timely manner in order to do their homework assignments, or even prepare for exams. ...

Lots of books in stock at competitive prices

by RainbowDoll , Jan 08 '04
One of my college professors recommended Powells.com to me, when ordering textbooks. Some of the larger names in textbooks, such as Amazon and Barnes and Noble, did not have the books in stock, particularly as some of the books were a bit rarer finds. ...

I purchased used software and it came in original packaging. It didn't look used at all. The price was $35 less than on other sites. I did not have to pay shipping, and the package arrived...

by Katie_dt1 , Sep 16 '02
I was very happy with this order. This was my second purchase from Powells.com. My first, a copy of "Carter Beats the Devil" was at a great used price. I can't believe I got a copy of "all the Pretty horses" for $5. I will continue to shop there as...

by LucyLou_dt1 , Aug 29 '02
Site was easy to navigate. Ordered a law school guide that hadn't been published yet, so it took a few weeks to ship, but no one (amazon, etc) had the book either. Book arrived promptly and was well packaged. I would definitely order again....

This is the best bookstore on the web that you aren’t using. Really!
