Don’t Forget Half.Com when Looking for a Bargain

by carstairs38, Dec 4, 2012 Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
I don’t even remember how I first heard about Half.com.  I know it was in the early days of the site.  It’s an offshoot of EBay, and always well worth checking out when you are looking for a bargain. At the time the ...

Half.com: Half E-Bay, Half Awkward Step-Child

by trailhound, Sep 11, 2012 Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Sometimes E-Bay buys-up other websites then just lets them linger on (sound familiar?), without investing too much money into them.  That is the case with Half.com, which is owned by E-Bay but is, oddly, only partially integrated into E-Bay’s ...

No customer service, and terrible sellers.

by reeba, Sep 4, 2012 Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
This place is a joke. I ordered two books from them, both of which the transaction numbers didn't work. When I click on the link that says "check status" it says that it cannot take me to the page. Then, when I manually type in the address, it says that ...

TERRIBLE. THEY TOOK MY MONEY AND DO NOT SHIP MY BOOKS!

by carolynu22, Aug 6, 2012 Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
This was a terrible experience. As soon as I keyed in my credit card number the computer screen said "Syntax Error, order not able to be processed." I looked for my order in the shopping cart and it was not there. I went to account summary and account ...

I have been a longtime (13 years) Ebayer but just in the last month found half.com. I was looking for a specific book and found it on half.com. The first seller I ordered it from sent the wrong book. The second seller I ordered it from sent the wrong ...

Withdrew money from my account - Unauthorized

by jogabelle, Oct 25, 2011 Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
I'm a college student who was trying to sell my book to another college student at a discount, but I had the misfortune of dealing with this terrible, unresponsive company. Half.com errs on the side of the buyer, not the seller. I believe that both ...

by photomommy44, Sep 23, 2011 Rated a Very Helpful Review by the Epinions community
Every order I have ever placed at Half.com has been smooth.  I've used them many times (and I also used to sell my books through them), and I can only think of one time when I had to contact the seller, and that was because I thought I should have ...

My son ordered a $19.00 book from half.com  which was a big savings from what they wanted to charge at the college bookstore.  He waited the mentioned wait time, but the book never came.  He tried emailing the seller several times, but did ...

HORRIBLE CUSTOMER SERVICE!

by number1fan22, Oct 12, 2010 Rated a Somewhat Helpful Review by the Epinions community
I am a regular EBay user and have always been very satisfied with each and every transaction. So I figured that Half.com would bring me the same joy, since they are a part of EBay. I was wrong about that. I purchased a textbook needed for a class of ...

My experience in December was dismal. Despite waiting months, I never received the item I ordered, and I have been unable to get in touch with Customer Service because there is literally no one to talk to. I contacted the seller several times, but ...

I ordered a textbook for college.  The seller shipped the wrong book, but it was on time.  (the seller has a 100% feedback) Half.com approved a refund 2 days later than the maximum response time they tell you.  They only give you a week to ...

Beware of half.com. I went shopping in the beginning of the semester for books. Imagine, you're all happy and excited, and suddenly you spend less on books than at the school book store. When your book arrives, you realize that the books don't match the ...

Usually I find half.com an easy place to buy and sell my books when I'm not having issues.  This time, a customer had just moved to a different city in the same state, so he used his old city and zip with his new street address.  A week later ...
