Half.com Reviews

If you're a student, this site is wonderful to post your items and buy as well. As it works similarly to ebay, you just have to watch out that you get your items on time. I had one instance where the sender squelched on my buy, but I simply contacted Half.com and was able to get my money back without much hassle.

Shopping at half.com is a bargain hunters dream. Their specialties are books, movies, games, gaming systems and music. They are fairly easy to navigate and do have a wish list for those titles you would like to see at lower rate. The dealers are reliable. There is a feeback system for people to leave comments on the transactions, so big incentive to keep dealers reliable. They also have a contact the dealer option. The shipping is 2.99 per item, but supposedly it can go lower if you purchase from the same dealer. Now every rose has it's thorn, and to me the thorn is it's affiliation with Ebay. At first if you are not fully registered with Ebay, you may have to enter your credit card information just to log on. That can get to be a pain. But once you are registered and in, have fun shopping.

If you are a college student you know the cost of your textbooks can easily surpass the tuition itself. My niece told me of half.com. Best deals I have ever got on my books. I paid $25.99 for 'Writing Today', a book that would have cost a whopping $72.95 at the UAA bookstore. I am so stoked! Thank you half.com.

I use them a lot, and the book deals are great-you can often get books for a small fraction of the cost. The only thing that adds up, are the shipping costs, which are a bit high.

I trust the site for my used textbooks. Thank you.

Half.com is the first place that I think to search whenever I am in need of a book, video, audiobook, or dvd. Being from a small Native American reservation in New Mexico, there are no places to shop for items like this. The nearest place to shop for media is located 40 miles away, and therefore, not accessible most times, especially in the winter when there is lots of snow. Half.com has been a personal lifesaver at many times for a good many years now. I have shopped on Half.com for my own personal use, and for my children and their student needs. In fact, tonight I will be purchasing required reading material for my junior in high school. Never once have I been disappointed in mailing time or quality of items. Thanks Ebay and Half.com for maintaining such high standards in customer service and standards. A Faithful Customer-Linda

I enjoy finding good prices on books but it is maddening when you know there is a current coupon code and you can't find it!

I suggest half.com to my students for their textbooks. It saves my kids a ton of cash!

I regularly buy books and videos from Half.com because I can always find a better deal!

I don't always care if my book is brand new, especially if I want it as a reference book, so there is no better place to find what I want at an excellent price.

I have personally always had good results with the people I buy from and highly recommend the site.

I've been shopping Half.com for years. I've also listed many books, audio books, CD's, and DVDs for sale on there. It's just like shopping Ebay without the worry of being outbid. Never had any problems receiving any of my orders and they're generally in the exact condition the seller advertised. Great site for finding holiday gifts at an excellent price.

Love half.com for all my books for school. There are always the best prices for school books!

While in college I ordered almost all my texts from this site and saved SO much cash! Please! Before purchasing your books at the University store check this site out first! Be sure to get the ISBN number, but I guarantee you will save big!!!

I first found Half.com when I sold my textbooks for a pretty good percentage of what I had paid--certainly more than the school bookstore had offered. I then wanted to build my CD collection and looked to Half.com: I could not believe that I could buy two disc albums for .75. There is a huge selection of music and even if one transfers these to an MP3 player, you are saving a ton of money. The best savings are in the books--many are under a dollar and in perfect condition. Gamers will enjoy the steep discounts on all kinds of games. I especially enjoy selling there too- I feel that I am helping the environment by allowing the book back into circulation while "making" money to buy the books and music that I need. Shipping can be expedited or standard rate--and one can combine items. Look for sellers with high ratings and read the description of the item you are buying carefully. Each comes in different conditions, so it is very important to carefully read this. I love Half.com--both the deposits that they make into my checking accounts monthly from my sales as well as the steals and deals I make often. Give it a try. The only thing that could make it MORE perfect would be more coupons--but it is a great idea and coupons can be found on sites like this.

ii placed my order for all my books at amazon this semester and i think this is the best site to buy or sell books online.

GREAT PRICE CREAT BOOK

For several years now, every time I need a textbook or a pleasure book, half.com is the place I go first. They have choices for all conditions of books, which are sorted by price according to the condition. I have saved hundreds, if not thousands of dollars by shopping at half.com rather than purchasing everything new. Anytime I hear of someone needing textbooks, I automatically send them to half.com. This site is one of the best. Thank you!

Great prices, great service and fast shipping from all sellers! I love Half.com and have been buying since before it was owned by Ebay.

love it..love it..love it!

I wouldn't go anywhere else for my audiobooks!

Books, music, videos and more. That's what you'll find at this site. I have been shopping and selling there for almost ten years and it is easy and rewarding.

Tired of bidding then losing a movie on Ebay? Or thinking you won that new book anly to fing that someone sniped you at the last minute? Then go to Half.com and just find and buy what you you want. Most of the time the item you want is available and CHEAPER than on ebay. If you buy online, this has to be one of your top bookmarks.

Try it now - you will definitely save money.

I have purchased books from half.com for several years and will continue to in the future. I have always received my books in the condition advertised, as well as in a timely manner.

ive been using half.com for years and years- can't go wrong!

This is a great concept. Just like ebay, half.com has things figured out. Wish they always had what you wanted, but not bad.

Half.com has extremely cheap shipping and prices for just about anything. On their site you can find so many cool cheap dvds and books and so much more. It is cool because you don't have to bid and wait to see if you have won, you know you have because you are buying it for the price it is at. It is an extension of ebay which makes you know its good.

It was wonderful. I bought my textbooks through half.com and was super impressed by everything. Wish they had some more coupon codes but I was very happy with everything else.

I cannot believe how cheap most everything half.com sells is! They have CDs for $2.99 or less, DVDs for $7.99 or less, books for less than $1! The prices are always some of the lowest you can find anywhere. Also, buying multiple items from one seller gets you a shipping discount. I could not ask more from half.com.

I have used half.com for several years. It is my "go to" for text books, gifts, and videos at a great price. Half.com is great about settling problematic transactions or purchases that have been lost in the mail. I have never had a bad experience with them. This is a great place to purchase and sell.
