TBR ordering question

After much research I decided to use TBR books as my primary source for content review, supplementing that with EK CARS and Bio and of course all of the AAMC testing materials.

Anyways, I filled out the online form for all 10 TBR reviews books and emailed it to the provided email. They replied that my debit card would be charged and my order is scheduled to be processed and shipped on Thursday (16th). The email also said that once the order is shipped that I'd get an email notification that my card had been charged along with the tracking info.

I checked my bank account today and noticed that it had been charged, but I have received no email confirmation. I'm not too worried, I'll probably get a confirmation email on Monday since they are not open on the weekends.

But I was just wondering what you guys' experience was with TBR ordering system? Is it normal for them to charge you without sending an email confirmation? I found that odd, but like I said I'm not too worried. Also, I chose the cheaper shipping option (1-5 days instead of 1-3), so maybe that has something to do with it.

Thanks! I really need to begin serious studying so I'm a little anxious lol.

I had a great experience with TBR shipping. Don't worry about the receipt. Just call in to their office during the week.

However, note that they ship the books in raw boxes, though the boxes are a tight fit, my books had damage around corners and such. They don't use bubble wrap or packaging to protect the books.

I also had a good experience with TBR shipping and had the same situation with no email notification. I called the office and got a confirmation that the shipment was on the way. No damage at all to my books.
