We plan to grade fairly hard. We want the books we sell to be in a condition we are not ashamed to offer.

These prices are for books delivered to our Receiving Warehouse (see Contact Us page for address) either by carrier or in person. If we decide we cannot buy back the book, it will be discarded or returned at your expense.

When you ship your books to us, please include a note with your address and phone number. Books should be packed well, but not in newspaper (which can leave marks on the books), as we will grade their condition upon arrival, and send you a check for the total.
