Q & A/ Textbook Refunds & Exchanges
Do I need my sales receipt and photo ID?
  • Always save your sales receipt! Without the sales receipt, we are not obligated to accept a return. We truly require your photo ID for your protection.
What textbooks may I return?
  • With the original sales receipt and your photo ID, you may return textbooks and other courseware that you buy for a specific academic term -- unless otherwise stated -- during a limited returns period. Items must be returned in their original resaleable condition.
May I return textbooks that I reserve?
  • Reservations have the same returns privilege as in-store purchases of textbooks and other courseware. We need the original reservation invoice, the picklist, and your photo ID. If you can not find the reservation invoice, please contact us before you try to return.
What if I purchase a defective textbook?
  • If defective, we exchange textbooks and other courseware within a reasonable period of time after the purchase. We require the original sales receipt and your photo ID. If you can not find the sales receipt, please contact us before you try to return.
How do I return textbooks I bought on-line?
In what form do I receive a refund?
  • If we owe you money, we refund the same way that you paid. If you paid by credit card, for example, we credit the refund to the same credit card account. Refunds and exchanges include any sales tax. We refund shipping & handling fees at our discretion.
