SELL YOUR BOOKS BACK TO THE BOOKSTORE AND BE ELIGIBLE TO ENTER OUR RAFFLE
ONE LUCKY WINNER WILL RECEIVE THEIR SPRING BOOKS FREE!!
Buyback is one of the services performed by the Bookstore. Our goal is to
purchase the majority of our used books during buyback--however we do purchase
some of our used books from wholesale book companies. We try to offer used books
wherever possible.
Our school buybacks are held during finals for the spring and fall semesters.
One buyback will be held in August for all summer sessions.
The Bookstore itself conducts the buyback. The instructors choose the textbooks
which they intend to use in their classes. Based on the quantity we need and the
demand for the book, the student can receive up to 50% of the original price of
a new book. If the Bookstore does not have any demand for the book, it is always
possible that the wholesale book company may purchase the book at a price which
they have set.
Receipts are not required for buyback.
Absolutely no information on the buyback prices will be done per telephone
since the physical condition of the book is a prime factor.
We
must see the book to determine if it is in saleable condition.
Some common reasons for not buying a book back:
- We have yet to receive an adoption form from the instructor in that area and therefore we do not know if the book will be used again.
- The book has gone into a new edition causing the market value of the book to be zero.
- The Bookstore itself has reached its quota on the number of books needed based on expected enrollment.
- The book itself in not in saleable condition (water damage, pages missing, writing in workbook type books, or over-all condition will not allow re-sale.)
The Bookstore will not buy books which are clearly identified as instructor's
copies--we cannot resell these nor can we donate them overseas).
We do not buy back any books in binders or any course packets printed here on
campus.
Please watch for signs which will be posted throughout the school with times and
dates for buybacks.
In addition to the Bookstore buyback during finals, you can also sell your books
back year round receiving prices set by the wholesalers.
