  • What if I need to make a return?
    While we strive to recommend only the best books and retailers, we do not handle the sale, shipping, or returns of any products. Once you’ve made your purchase, your transaction is with the retailer, not with us. If you encounter any issues such as delayed shipping, damaged goods, or if you need to make a return, it’s important that you contact the retailer directly. They are the ones who will have all the details about your order and will be best equipped to help you. Typically, retailers will provide customer service contact information on their websites or in the order confirmation email. Visit out Shipping & Returns page to learn more.
