While we're happy to accept local trade-ins, there are some books we cannot accept for purchasing or trade-in. These are determined by genre and condition, but also based upon the popularity of the subject, and if it is sellable. We can not purchase books without seeing them first, as we need to check each book to evaluate it's condition. All books for trade in need to be of good and tidy condition.
We don't except broken, books of poor condition, soiled books or books we have multiple of in stock.
It's important to note that we offer more for store credit than buying outright.
FAQ
How does the Trade-In system work?
We'll grade good quality secondhand books you bring in, and offer you an amount that will be deducted off anything you purchase in store.
Please only bring in up to 1 to 2 small bags or boxes at a time as we'll need to assess them.
If the store is busy you may need to leave the books with us, but we'll get you a value as soon as we can.
What if I have a large quantity of used books e.g. an estate, or no transport?
Please give us a call or email and we'll do our best to arrange a time to come and view and collect. We will only accept good quality books.
Do you buy books?
Yes we buy secondhand books, but the amount given is less than you would get for a trade-in.
They must be popular or desirable books (new/recent releases or collectable books).
