Thanks for your review. We understand it can be disappointing when your documents haven’t sold yet, especially after putting time into uploading them.

There is no fixed timeframe for making a first sale, and it can sometimes take a little while for the right buyers to find your documents. Sales can depend on things like demand, pricing, titles, descriptions, and how your documents compare with similar listings.

We recommend keeping your listings clear, relevant, and competitively priced, and checking what similar documents are doing well on Stuvia.

Don’t give up just yet. You’re always welcome to send us a message if you’d like some extra tips on how to improve your chances of making sales. We’re happy to help.

Scam

I purchased a document on Stuvia because it was advertised with a money-back guarantee, which gave me confidence that I could request a refund if the document was not as described.

Unfortunately, the document did not match what I believed I was purchasing based on the listing. When I contacted Stuvia for a refund, I was then told that because I had already opened/accessed the document, I was no longer eligible for one.

That policy makes the advertised “money-back guarantee” feel extremely misleading. You cannot realistically determine whether a digital document has been falsely or inaccurately advertised without opening it first. If opening the document automatically eliminates your ability to receive a refund, then the guarantee provides very little protection to the buyer.

I would not have made the purchase if the listing had clearly stated upfront that simply viewing the document would void the money-back guarantee. Stuvia should either honor the guarantee in cases where a document is not as advertised or make this restriction extremely clear before payment. Very disappointing experience.

Hi,

We’re sorry to hear that the document did not meet your expectations, and we understand why this situation was frustrating.

We would like to clarify one important point regarding our money-back guarantee. Simply viewing a purchased document does not automatically make you ineligible for a refund. After purchasing, you can review the full document in our online viewer before downloading it.

The refund restriction applies once the document has been downloaded. Before downloading, we show a notification explaining that downloading the file affects refund eligibility.

We understand that this distinction may not have been clear enough in your experience, and we appreciate your feedback. We’ll take this into account when reviewing how this information is communicated to buyers.

You’re also always welcome to contact us through our chat. We’re happy to look at your specific purchase and see what options may still be available in your situation.

Hi Zandre,

We’re sorry to hear about your experience. To clarify, it is not the case that we are refusing to help or provide a solution. It appears there may be an issue with this specific payout, and our financial department is already investigating what happened.

The payment was expected to arrive yesterday, but as it still has not arrived today, we have asked for some additional patience while the team looks into the issue further.

We fully intend to resolve this and make sure the payout is handled correctly. We understand how frustrating it is to wait for money you were expecting, and we’re sorry for the inconvenience this delay has caused.

I’m honestly very upset with my experience. I specifically ordered the AHIP Final Exam 2027 Actual Exam Questions and Correct Answers, and what I received was NOT the correct material at all. The documents were completely different from what was advertised, and now I’m stuck with something I can’t use.

I trusted Stuvia to deliver accurate study resources, but this feels misleading and unacceptable. I paid for a product that wasn’t delivered, and I’m extremely disappointed. I’m requesting either the correct documents or a full refund.

Buyers, please be cautious — this was not the experience I expected.

Hi Dana,

Thank you for your message. I'm really sorry to hear the document is not what you expected. Please note that Stuvia is a platform where students can sell their study materials. Therefore it is very unlikely that you can find an actual exam on our platform. However, could you please contact support@stuvia.com so we can find the best solution for you?

Thank you!

Hi,

We’re very sorry to hear that the document only contained 100 questions when you expected 200. We completely understand how disappointing that must be!

The documents on Stuvia are uploaded and created by independent sellers, not by Stuvia itself. However, we’re always happy to help when a purchase does not match the description or expectations.

Please contact us at support@stuvia.com with the details of your purchase, so we can look into this with you and arrange a refund.

Kind regards,
Stuvia

The company allows sellers to set their own prices which gives room to adjust according to demand of the document/ product. However, the company must add more universities and colleges in order for sellers to upload more.

The website works fine

The website works fine. There are a lot of documents to be found. The percentage the company takes from the prices of the documents is a bit high.
There is room for improvement in the area of managing the quality of the documents, given the circumstance Stuvia takes a decent percentage of the sales, they should put effort in having only good quality documents.

Thank you for your review and for sharing your feedback with us!

We’re glad to hear that the website works well for you and that you can find many documents on Stuvia. We also understand your point about the commission and the quality of documents on the platform.

Stuvia is a marketplace where sellers upload their own study documents. Because of this, we do not create the documents ourselves, but we do want buyers to have a reliable and useful experience. Feedback about document quality is very valuable to us, and we continuously look for ways to improve how documents are checked, reviewed and presented on the platform.

The commission helps us keep the platform running, support users, process payments securely and continue improving the service. That said, we understand that sellers may experience this percentage as high, and we appreciate you sharing this honestly.

If you ever come across a document that does not meet expectations, please contact us so we can look into it and help where possible!

Not accurate.

If this were a free service I would rate it higher. However I paid for review material for an important test and the material was less than 25% accurate, Giving 2 stars is generous because that is 40%. I do not recommend paying for this material you can probably get the same or more on the shared sites.

Thank you for your honest feedback. We’re sorry to hear that the review material did not meet your expectations, especially since it was for an important test.

Stuvia is a marketplace where students and other users upload their own study materials, so the quality and accuracy can vary per document. That said, we do take it seriously when materials may be advertised incorrectly or do not match what is promised in the description.

Please feel free to contact us directly so we can look into the specific document and review what happened. You can always send us a chat or an email at support@stuvia.com.

Best,
Stuvia
