Trade-In

Terms & Conditions

For every 8 books of good or better quality you trade in, you get 1 free item of the same type.

Customers must make their selections for trade the same day.

Items must be traded for the same type.

  • A customer is allowed to trade in media (DVDs, records, CDs, VHS) for new free media, but they cannot trade the media for books. They are allowed to mix and match the media, but only media. Ex, a customer can trade 24 DVDs for 1 CD, 1 VHS, and 1 record- but they cannot trade them for a book.
