Buy Back Policy
If you have great books that you would like to sell or donate, visit our Canyon Country or Simi Valley locations*. No appointments are required, but highly encouraged.
* Northridge and Woodland Hills are not currently accepting buybacks or donations.
How it works:
- Visit us with up to 50 books at a time (about 2 banker’s boxes).
- We assess them based on condition and current demand for the title.
- For any title we accept, we offer approximately 10% of what we can sell the title for.
- We offer you on-the-spot store credit ONLY. We do NOT offer cash.
Books we DO accept: Non-fiction books or in-demand fiction titles.
Books we DO NOT accept: Magazines, newspapers, encyclopedias, Reader’s Digest, Advance Readers copies, textbooks, dirty or damaged books, or any books that smell like smoke.
Any books we cannot accept MUST be taken back with you and removed from the bookstore.
What if I have a large collection of books?
If you have a lot of books, (think more than 200 and are pretty close to being a bookstore yourself) send us an email requesting a home visit along with a brief description and 3-5 pictures representative of your collection.
