Book Buyback
Follett’s bookstores buy back textbooks every day, although the best value is usually at the end of each semester. As much as 50 percent of the retail price is paid for books bought for the store to use in an upcoming semester. When campus need is met, the stores offer the prevailing national wholesale value. Factors that determine need include enrollment, store stock and if a class is running. A student ID or government issued ID and proof of purchase or enrollment is required.
