We began as a home-based business in the state of Pennsylvania and we have been in business for three and a half years. We currently sell college, high school, and professional books, as well as chemistry kits and online access codes. Daily operations include ordering, pricing, and listing, labeling and sending the products to our various stores. We sell products on Amazon, eBay, Barnes & Noble, Abebooks, Alibris, Textbookrush and other vendors.
The original idea for Heisenbooks started more than 15 years ago, on a much smaller scale than it operates at today. Our founder, Matthew Davis, found that a set of certain Star Wars: Choose Your Own Adventure books were being sold for a solid amount of money. He was able to buy a few of these books cheaply, and then turn a profit selling them on Amazon. When he wasn’t teaching Chemistry at a local high school, he continued ordering a few of these books and flipping them online for some spending money.
It was August of 2014 when Matt decided to expand his side hustle into a full-blown business. He quickly went to work, expanding his inventory and beginning to establish Heisenbooks as serious online book vendor. A year later, in August of 2015, Matt reached out to Jay Fishman, his friend, and an Accounting teacher, to help him with the economic side of the company.
The first three hires were Adam, Sam, and Robby (children of Matt or Jay), coming on board in the spring and Summer of 2014. Since then, Heisenbooks has expanded its family to account for 22 workers, ranging from sophomores in high school to students well into college. That growth has come with our business growth, making us into the company we are today.
We are all about our customers here at Heisenbooks, and books have been important to all of us in one way or another. Instead of moving on to new developments or technologies, we use the tools at our service to assist us in connecting more and more people every day to new stories, lessons, and experiences, only found in books.
By buying from us, you support our family and our tried but true values of respect, ingenuity, and persistence. We aspire to always provide you with an easy experience getting the products you need. We hope you find what you’re looking for, and that you feel good after doing so. We certainly feel good knowing that we could help.
