Better World books, only gives like 5-10% of revenue to to non profits that supposedly help fund literacy programs, sounds good right? Now go to your local friends of library and find that all the good books for sale, are gone or have been priced up. It's because betterworldbooks takes the used books fron the friends of the libraries bookstores (for free) and makes a killing of of them. They also take books that people donate to the friends of library and have the ones they can't sell destroyed.

This practice might actually hurt literacy for the poor in this country.

Absolutely. Not to mention the fact that they don't honor sales agreements and take up to a week to ship purchases. Plainly put, they are fill of it! Never again will I use this company!

Anothe ruse in the guise of helping the world at large.

Very good comment. They have bins all over college campuses with words like "Donate" and "Give" in big letters, giving the false impression that they are a charity organization. Only in tiny letters at the bottom of these four foot signs do they reveal the fact that they are a for-profit company. They are utterly reprehensible.
