What you should know about BuyBack!

The best time to sell your book back is at the end of the semester buyback. During this time you will receive the highest possible price for your book.

There are 6 factors that affect the price you will receive at buyback.

  1. The condition of the book (No books with broken spines, excessive marking or liquid damage will be purchased).

  2. The bookstore may be overstocked.

  3. The instructor has chosen to use this book.

  4. There is no national demand for your book.

  5. A new edition has been published.

  6. The instructor will not use this book or is undecided
