We Buy, Sell, & Trade Used Books!

 

You'll find an excellent selection of used books on the "Recently Acquired Used Books" case on our main floor, as well as throughout each section of the store.

 

Buying times are 10 a.m. - 5 p.m. Monday through Saturday.
The Used Book Office is located in the West Basement. Sellers may also drop off used books at a register after hours. We will examine the books as soon as possible. We offer both cash and trade in exchange for good quality used books.

 

Guidelines:

  • Condition is the most important criterion. We do not accept books with writing or highlighting in the body of the book (inscriptions are okay). We do not buy books with torn covers, broken spines or water damage. All hardcovers must have their original dust jacket.
  • We do not buy computer books, textbooks, or literary journals/magazines. Business and travel books must be published within the last year. We consider books of all other subjects and genres, including audiobooks on CD.
  • We accept a MAXIMUM of TWO BOXES (or bags) of books per visit.
  • First-time sellers, please bring a photo ID with you - we cannot buy your books without it!
  • The Used Book office does not offer appraisals or estimates. Books dropped off are presumed to be for sale; books we buy from you are placed directly into our inventory.
  • If you have questions, please contact our Used Book office manager at 303.447.2074, Ext 120.
