What is "Good Condition"?
say no to nasty books! Books bought by Textbooks.com must meet the following criteria otherwise they will not be bought back. Books not in good condition or not found in the Textbooks.com price system will be destroyed or discarded.

Books in good condition do not have any of the following:

  • Stains of any sort
  • Disfigurement due to water/fluid exposure
  • Missing, torn or loose pages/cover
  • Excessive writing, marking or highlighting
  • Broken spine/binding
  • Any other significant damage

Note: In order to receive full credit, all items included with the textbook must be included. Textbooks missing original CDs, study guides, diskettes or other loose-leaf items will not receive full credit.

Decisions regarding the condition of books we receive rest solely with Textbooks.com. All decisions are final. If we decide that your book is not in good condition, we'll notify you by email. Then, you'll have 7 days to either:

  • Request that we mail you a copy of the same book (at your shipping expense), or
  • Let us responsibly recycle the textbook.
