Sell A Book / Buyback Database
Want to know if your books are being bought? Tell us which textbook you want to sell (just enter in its ISBN, usually printed on the back cover next to the barcode) and the website will search the Buyback database to tell you how much we can pay you for them at a Buyback.
BuyBack Alerts and Used Book Classifieds
Want to be notified by email when we are buying your books back? Then, sign up for Buyback Alerts. Periodically we will send out emails matching the books you have signed up with the current buyback prices listed in our database.
Is the offered buyback price too low? Or is your book not being bought back at all? Use the Used Book Classifieds to buy and sell books privately between students.

Where does this price come from?
As indicated in the
FAQ, the
"Home Price" is quoted
only if the
Concordia Bookstore is buying this book for our own stock.
When available, this home price
is the highest bid price listed in the Buyback system for a given book and
represents
50% of our new retail price for the same book
Where does this price come from?
As indicated in the
FAQ,
the
Away Price is quoted
only if the Concordia Bookstore is not buying this book, but
another
campus store IS buying it. This away price represents
30% of the new
retail price at that purchasing store.
We can buy this book from you on their behalf and ship it to the other store.
Where does this price come from?
As indicated in the
FAQ,
the
wholesale price is quoted
only if the Concordia Bookstore and the other participating campus stores are not buying this
book
(if any of us were, the quoted price would be higher), but a
wholesaler
IS buying it.
The wholesalers set their bids differently than the academic stores,
as a result these prices are the lowest bids in the Buyback system.
We can buy this book from you on their behalf at this price and send it to the wholesaler.
Sorry - Book not being bought back.
Sorry, this book is not being bought back right now.
As indicated in the
FAQ,
this means that the Concordia Bookstore and the other participating campus stores are not buying this
book, and neither are the book wholesalers we work with.
Demand for books will change over the year, you could check back
later to see if anyone is buying it then (especially before the start of a term).
