A little bit more about us
We have been in the book industry for many years and can assist with any book you require from 2nd-hand to new. If it's not on our website, Call or email us and we will let you know if we can get it for you.
Selling and Buying Second-hand Books
Buying
As a 2nd-hand bookstore we understand that purchasing school books can be expensive , all our 2nd-hand books are cheaper than buying all your books new!
Please come in with your booklists so we can ensure that we are selecting the right titles for you!
As we progress in technology we understand that there are digital versions required for textbooks now and how it can be a challenge to purchase a 2nd-hand textbook with digital.
Thus we grade our books from A-C
A= being with digital
B=being with no digital
C= being in not the best condition
The prices will reflect each book accordingly.
As the demand for 2nd-hand books with digitals increase, An order request must be made for a 2nd-hand Textbook with a working digital.
Please keep in mind that there are only a few select publishers that allow us to ensure if the digital versions of textbooks work.
This includes:
Jacaranda
Cambridge
Nelson
The publishers that do not allow us to check digital versions are:
Oxford
Pearson
Insight
If we do not have a book that you require 2nd-hand we can always put your name down for one and when it does comes to our store 2nd-hand it will be allocated to you.
If you have anymore questions please do not hesitate to ask us! Our friendly staff are more than happy to help.
