Not impressed. Avoid.
Not impressed. Very disappointed as I had high hopes. Here’s what I advise - if their competitors are offering slightly less for a book, go with the competitor as there’s a significantly less chance of having your books rejected.
When you press sell books, just double check that books that have been sitting in your basket still have the same value as you can end up sending them books now worth £0 if you’re not careful. Can’t imagine for a minute that they don’t then put them in their inventory … could be wrong but they certainly may weren’t offered back to me if I paid the costs.

Dear Mrs. Shuttleworth,
Thank you for your feedback regarding your experience with Sellitback.
Regarding your concerns about rejected items, our quality check process is designed to ensure all books meet our resale standards. We do not accept library books, or items that are ripped, stained, marked, or mouldy. Any books that fail this inspection are recycled, and any profits generated from the recycling process are donated to charity. As per our policy, rejected items are not returned to the sender.
In relation to book valuations, please note that the value of books in your basket can fluctuate based on market demand. We advise all customers to verify the final trade-in value on the checkout page before confirming the sale to ensure you are happy with the offer.
We value your comments and will use them to help improve our service.
Thanks and Regards,

Dear John,
Thank you for your feedback. We are sorry to hear that you are disappointed with the rejection of some of your items and the processing time for your parcels.
Regarding our quality standards, we do not accept books with scuffs, marks, staining, or damage to the spine. While we understand you check your books before sending, our quality control team must adhere strictly to these guidelines to ensure the items are suitable for resale.
If you believe a book was rejected in error or damaged in transit, please provide clear, 6-angle images (Front, Back, Spine, Top, Bottom, and Side) of the items in question so we can investigate this further for you.
We would also like to highlight that we do offer incentives for our customers. You can receive an extra 10% on your total value by opting for voucher payments instead of cash.
Thanks and Regards,

Rip off merchants.
Rip off merchants.
I sold books to Sell it back and agreed to take vouchers to spend with Awesome Books, but their website is $#!t and couldn't accept my order as a result of their own self-admitted failing. Awesome Books and Sell it back are now refusing to give me my money instead. I will never use them again.
30 Mar 2026 - Sell it Back told me there was no way to convert my vouchers into cash, yet the Awesome Books Senior Team Lead for Customer Service agreed to refund me and provided a very disappointing small amount of compensation; so, more lies from Sell It Back. I will still never use them again.

We acknowledge the frustration caused by the conflicting information you received regarding the conversion of your vouchers and the difficulties in processing your order. Please be assured that we will look into this matter internally and use your feedback to improve our services and communication moving forward.
We appreciate your patience and the time you took to bring this to our attention.

Not easy for the personal seller
Sellitback seems to be more geared for business users rather than personal seller as they recommend using a USB scanner for barcodes. Trying to do it on your phone or directly into website is very slow.. They do give good prices on selected items. Evri pick-up worked OK for me up to about 10kgs weight - but shipments take some time to reach the warehouse and processing seems to take even longer. I had to chase the couple of shipments I've made to them - but once nudged they seem to respond quickly, process the trade and pay swiftly. Some items were rejected but no worse than World of Books. Much prefer WeBuyBooks. I probably wouldn't use again.

Thank you for sharing your feedback regarding your experience with Sellitback.
We appreciate your comments regarding our pricing and the efficiency of our payment process once trades are completed. We aim to provide a competitive service for all our users, whether personal or business.
Regarding the barcode scanning process, we recommend USB scanners for high-volume efficiency, but we are always looking for ways to improve the mobile and manual entry experience for our personal sellers. We also acknowledge your notes on the transit and processing times; while we strive for a swift turnaround, delays can occasionally occur during the courier and intake stages.
In regards to rejected items, please be assured that our quality control guidelines are strictly enforced to maintain our inventory standards. As per our policy, items that are marked, stained, or damaged cannot be accepted and are recycled for charity.
We value your business and hope you might consider using our services again in the future.

Thank you for your feedback.
We are genuinely sorry to hear about your experience and the inconvenience caused by the missed collections. This is not the level of service we aim to provide.
Collections should take place on the confirmed date, and we understand how frustrating it must have been to prepare your parcel, only for it not to be collected, especially with the weather causing damage. That is understandably disappointing.
We would very much like the opportunity to look into what happened here and identify where the breakdown occurred. Please contact us directly at cs@sellitback.com
with your order number so we can investigate this fully with our courier and see if there is anything we can do to put this right.
Your feedback is taken seriously, and we are working continuously with our collection partners to prevent situations like this from happening again.
Kind regards,

Dear Miss D,
Thank you for your feedback.
You are correct that QR codes are issued manually by our team once requested. We understand that waiting for this to be sent can cause inconvenience, and we appreciate your patience.
We are sorry to hear that you also experienced a delay with payment. Payments are processed once items are received and fully assessed at our warehouse, but this should not take an extended period.
Please provide your latest order number at cs@sellitback.com so we can review the status of the outstanding payment and resolve this without further delay.
Thanks and Regards,

Dear Lynne,
Thank you for sharing your feedback.
We understand how concerning it can be to see an item marked as not received, particularly when you are confident it was included in the parcel. When books are processed at our warehouse, each item is scanned individually against the order. If an item is not scanned into the system, it is recorded as not received.
In some cases, this can occur if a barcode does not scan correctly, the ISBN differs from the one originally submitted, or if the parcel contents do not fully match the trade created.
If you would like us to review this further, please provide your order number at cs@sellitback.com and we will check the warehouse records in more detail.
Thanks and Regards,

i probably wouldn’t use them again i didn’t realise that the pricing would be an estimation so i got significant less than i expected for books that were mostly in very good condition. It does mention it in the terms and conditions but i don’t think it was made clearly enough and im not a fan of tucking away important information.
shipping was also a bit of a faff having to print etc and not having a time slot for pick ups.

Dear Hannah,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience.
We understand your concerns regarding pricing. All offers shown at the basket stage are live market-based estimates and may change at the point of confirmation depending on demand and stock levels. The final payment also reflects the outcome of the quality assessment once items are received. We appreciate that this may not always meet expectations, and your feedback regarding clarity has been noted.
In relation to shipping, we acknowledge that printing labels and open collection windows may not suit everyone. We do offer QR code drop-off options at Evri ParcelShops for customers who prefer not to print labels, which can help simplify the process.
We are sorry to hear that the overall experience felt stressful, particularly given the value involved. Your comments are valuable and will be shared internally as part of ongoing service review.
Thanks and Regards,

Dear Suzie,
We acknowledge your message and are sorry to read your comments.
Sellitback does not reduce payouts unfairly. All offers are based on live market demand and stock levels at the point an order is confirmed, and final payments reflect the items received and accepted following our quality assessment process. We do not operate any form of manual reduction outside of these criteria.
Regarding courier collections, labels must match the booking reference on Evri’s system. If there has been a mismatch, this is a booking or label allocation issue rather than an intentional action to delay or reduce payment.
If you would like a formal review of the specific sales in question, please confirm the sale IDs on cs@sellitback.com and we will escalate them for a documented investigation with both our warehouse and courier partner.
Thanks and Regards,
The Sellitback Team
Some excellent condition books ripped and didn’t pay for them. They don’t pay what they quote on the site and take a month to get your money.
They took over 3 weeks to get the books and rejected many almost new books. Paid less than half the value price which was very low to start with compared to new. No opportunity to have books back as they say they ”recycle” them.
I asked for photographic proof and they sent photographs after 2 times of asking. The photographs showed deliberately torn books that were in a good condition and packed well when sent. They happen to be the more expensive books. It’s a scam and don’t want to pay for them. Either that or Evri opened the box and ripped them. I’m very angry as they are books that were well cared for by me.

Check book guidance clearly
I sent the books in good faith based on an initial £10 valuation. After inspection, the offer was reduced to £2 due to some being classed as ex-library, although some books were new. This was only raised after the books had been sent.
If the reduced offer is declined, the books are recycled and cannot be returned, even if return postage is offered. In practice, this means that once books are sent, customers have no meaningful choice if the valuation is lowered.

Be aware they dont pay what is quoted
For selling used books: easy to use app with scan. Instructions clear, communication prompt on pick up, arrival and payments.
Beware that they unlikely to pay what is quoted even if the books are in good used condition. The reasoning for assessment of book condition leading to this is unclear.
There is no option to have the books sent back if this happens either.
I would stick to webuybooks or sell your books apps, who generally will pay what is quoted unless the book has been trashed.
