Appointments are not necessary, but trades are taken in order received. (Tuesday - Sunday) This means that you may need to come back at a later time or date to pick up your credit and/or books not taken. If this is the case, we call you when your order is finished. Trade books, no more than 30 per day, for in-store credit. We give approximately 20% of the current book price (per internet research) as in-store credit. Your credit is printed on your cash register receipt (the amount is circled in red), and placed with your blue customer card in a plastic sleeve, for use on your visits. Your credit and customer card will be returned to you along with any books we cannot take. Returned books are marked "cannot take" or "try again", depending on conditionand inventory needs. Please pick up your books within 48 hours of processing date/call; books not picked up are given to charity after one week. |
In-store credit transactions include a cash handling fee of $.50 for each item priced over $4.00; $.25 for each item priced $4.00 and under. This fee helps us to cover the process of giving a fair price to each and every book.
Printed on a label located on the back of the book, or on a bookmark inside the book (for older books), our prices are set at approximately 40% off of current market value. We research fair prices for every book using industry resources on the Internet.
