Buying Used Textbooks FAQ
Does buying used textbooks mean I should order earlier?
• You should. Used textbook inventory is limited, so the earlier you order, the better your chances of getting the book you want at a good price.
How quickly should I expect to receive my textbooks?
• Allow time for the book to arrive. You will receive your book from most vendors within 7 days. Expedited shipping is also available, but remember most bookstores take 1 day before sending your order.
Can my textbooks be sent to a PO Box on campus?
• To avoid book shipping problems, make sure you use a mailing address that can receive packages from the shipping carrier you choose.
How do I find the ISBN of the books I buy?
• Your college bookstore can help you locate the ISBN number of the books for your class. Your professor may know as well.
What do I do if my textbooks don't arrive on time?
• Save all of your web and email order confirmations, in case you need to resolve a dispute.
Should I trust online used textbook vendors to send me the right books?
• Check the condition and format of a used textbook before you buy. If a price seems too good to be true, find out why by looking at the book condition and details.
