How to Sell Your Books Back for Great Prices

Being a College Student Today Means That You Need Money

Unless you or your parents are filthy rich, it’s pretty safe to assume that if you attend a college or university in the United States these days, you need cash. Tuition is high, rent is high, and the cost of textbooks is high. Worst, once the courses you bought the textbooks for are over, in many cases you can’t sell them back to the college bookstore you bought them from because they don’t want them. They say things like, “There’s a new edition that’s required for this course next year, so we can’t resell your edition,” and wave you out the door.

Wouldn’t it be nice if there were a way to sell your textbooks to a company that knows that there is ALWAYS a market for textbooks in good condition, somewhere. The same textbook that your technical engineering college bookstore is telling you is worthless because it’s an older edition might be worth a great deal down the road at a less technical college, where the instructors don’t care if students have the latest edition.

We’re Able to Buy Textbooks Others Don’t Want, Because We Know Where to Sell Them

Your local college bookstore has a very limited market for the books it sells – next year’s class, at one, single institution of learning. In contrast, we work with hundreds of bookstores and remarketers around the nation, and we’re good at figuring out where “last year’s textbooks” are worth almost as much used as they were when they were new. This is what allows us to buy so many textbooks, and pay top dollar for them.

What Are We Looking For and Not Looking For in the Books We Buy?

We have documented the types and the condition of the books we seek on our Help Center, but here are a few things we’re NOT interested in:

  • Teachers’ or Instructors’ editions, or promotional copies.
  • International editions (our markets purchase U.S. textbooks only).
  • Workbooks or textbooks that are marked up or highlighted, or with notes in them.
  • Books that have been damaged due to moisture, heavy wear to the binding, tears to pages or missing pages, or with strong odors (including cigarette smoke).

We are interested in buying most other types of textbooks, and we’ve made the process of selling them to us so quick and easy that it makes sense to try EagleSaver.com first before trying to sell them elsewhere. Just go to our website, enter the ISBN numbers of the books you want to sell and submit your order. We’ll quickly send you a quote of what we’ll pay for them. If you’re interested, just complete the order, send the books to us using the pre-paid mailing labels we provide, and we’ll send you a check or credit your PayPal account the minute we receive them. What could be faster, or easier?
