FAQs

1. How do you determine the price of my books?
   We base offers on the current resale value, condition, and demand for each item. Some books might fetch higher offers depending on current trends or market interest.
   
   
2. Can I sell books if they are outdated?
   Outdated books may still be accepted, but offers will likely be lower. Popular or in-demand older textbooks may still have value.
   
   
3. What if I don’t agree with the offer?
   If you feel the offer is not satisfactory, you are under no obligation to accept it. You may take your items back with no charge.
