TEXTBOOK BUYBACK POLICY

1. Buyback is conducted only in-person, in our store. Buyback is currently not available online.
2. This is largely due to the fact that we have to see .the book before we can quote a price for buyback. Because of this, we can't quote buyback prices online, over the phone, or via email. We will, however, be happy to consider books you purchase online (or anywhere else) for our in-store (in-person) buyback as follows:
3. Our best price may be paid for your book if:
   Buyback is in effect (see buyback dates on home page)
   Bookstore has a faculty requisition for the title / edition for following quarter
   Bookstore currently needs inventory of the title / edition
4. Wholesale price may be paid for your book if:
   Book does not meet the above criteria
   Title / edition has a wholesale demand
   (Wholesale price is pre-determined by national wholesalers)
5. Old editions have no value and will not be bought
6. Books needing repair have a reduced value. Badly damaged books have no value and will not be bought. We reserve the right to make final judgment on a book's condition
7. Photo ID required for refunds
8. College Book Store reserves the right to refuse to buy any book for any reason
