HI CORNHUSKERS:
As most of you know the NEBRASKA BOOK STORE buys back at all times the books you no longer
need. We are now entering that period of the year when you are most concerned about selling your
books. Since there is certain information regarding the repurchase and resale of textbooks that will
be of value and interest' to all of you, we have composed the following copy. This is an effort to help
students understand what determines the prices they receive. Through such understanding, we feel
that both the bookstore and the students will benefit.
You are interested in receiving the best price possible for the books you no longer need. It is to our
best interest that you receive the highest price possible.
WHAT DETERMINES THE PRICE PAID FOR BOOKS?
Why aren't all books repurchased at the came percentage
and why isn't it more?
The books you hkve to sell at the end of each semester
will usually be of three types.
1. Books that will be used again the following term at
the University of Nebraska.
2. Books that will no longer be used here, but are in
considerable demand at other schools.
3. Books that will no longer be used here, and are not
in large demand elsewhere.
Books in category one will, of course, be worth the most
money. These books are normally repurchased at 50
of the retail price. They are resold by the bookstore
at 70 .
Books of the second category are repurchased at vary
ing prices, depending on the age of the books, the popu
larity of the subject and general supply and demand
conditions on the national market. This will usually
vary from 20 to 40 of the list price. The discon
tinued books for which we pay the best price are those
which are in the greatest demand. For on those that we
resell the queckest we can take a small margin. When
we resell a book on the national wholesale market it is
sold for 45 of the original price.
Books of the third category must be purchased if at
all at a price that will take into account the fact that
many of them will never be resold. A textbook is an
article that generally cannot be "cleared" by reducing
the price, as very few people are interested in an old
textbook unless it is required in a course. When the
limited demand of this type is filled the balance often
must be discarded.
WHICH BOOKS SHOULD I SELL?
Most books acquired by a student during his college career have limited reference value. This is for two reasons. .e
is that most of the information that might be needed later is scattered through many books, and is more readily avail
able in other single volumes. The other reason is that new books are always being published and older books revised
and brought up to date. Most of the books you now have are probably copyrighted within the last four years and will
probably be revised in a similar period. Those books which have permanent reference value are better kept than sold,
WHY SELL YOUR BOOKS TO NEBRASKA BOOK STORE?
By utilizing the buying service of a wholesale book company, it is possible to give you more money for all your books
than would otherwise be possible. You receive the top price on books that are to be used here again. Discontinued books
can be marketed best by a company specializing in that function.' There are in use today more than 14,000 different titles
in colleges throughout the United States with only four companies dealing in textbook wholesaling. This should indi
cate to you the highly specialized nature of the business. Our buyers know the wholesale market well, and that knowledge
enables us to pay higher prices.
