    Awesome!! Better than expected.

    I thought these books would be actual beaters but was pleasantly surprised when a lot of them were well used but good and some where in like new condition. Definetly worth it. Also nice to find a new selection of books I might not have found myself

    As described, great variety!

    Really enjoyable selection of books. Most in very good condition, considering they're beater books. Quality was very similar to thrift stores books; names/inscriptions on the inside cover, library or community organization stamps. I did receive duplicates for two of the books, however I didn't feel the need to reach out as I planned to share these books with family. Would definitely recommend.

    A BEATER book is a book that is noticeably used. (it looks a little beat up)

    At The Book Bundler, we sell used books, but we sort them and grade them so our book bundles are in excellent condition. 

    All of the books that are not in good enough shape for our regular bundles are graded as BEATERS and we sell these for huge discounts.  Typically around $1 a book or less.

    BEATER books are still great books, popular titles etc., but they offer big cost savings if you don't mind books that are a little worse for wear.

    All BEATERs are still readable, will not be missing pages and will either be ex-library or have noticeable wear to cover.

    We get asked a lot, 'where do you get your books from?'

    We have worked out exclusive partnerships with other booksellers & paper recyclers in the U.S.A.

    Most people do not realize that all other booksellers destroy far more books then they can sell by selling them to recyclers or pulpers.  (we won't name names 😉)

    We are the last chance stop for these books, through our partnerships, we sift and sort through these books and pull out any and all of the books in good condition(you'd be surprised what people throw away).  

    They might be used books, but we sort for quality and look for books that are in great shape despite being previously loved. 

    When you buy from The Book Bundler, you are not only recycling, you are reducing waste, going green and saving beloved books from certain destruction.  

    That's how we are able to charge so little. 

    Saving money on books never felt so right.
