how much my books ere worth when I sell
them b3ck?

If the bookstore has notified :,n ;rom he In
structor that the book is tj be re . do; :d fcr
the next semester, and. if the iioc'istc. j'does
not already have a sufficient toc!f on hah J, thin
the student wi.'1'I F rrffered CQ off the pub
lishers currcit list f I: : For instance, a book
which curre !y sells ( r $10.00 iew, and
which, meets S requi .:ents noted above
wou!d be wc;j $8.00. It would be resold
the next semester
$7.50.
If the be;.! ::re hss riot received notice that
tV; : iok will I : Used again, or if it already has a
sui,;rnt stock,) the book would be worth the
current i-holele price as indicated by one of
the riutiws largest jobbers of used textbooks.
The buyer will be happy to answer any quest
ions which you may have regarding the price
paid. . : . ' ."
Q. Is sixty percent the usual price paid for text
books around the country?
A. Definitely not! Most stores in the United States pay only 50 percent for
books being used again. The University Bookstore is one of only a very
few which pay 60 percent. And remember we pay cash.
Q. What about paperbacks? Does the same policy apply to them?
A. Yes. The University Bookstore does not penalize you on text paperbacks.
If they are being used again, and if the bookstore needs them, they are still
worth 60 percent of the publisher's current list price. The only exception
is English paperbacks which are bought at wholesale prices.
Q. If the publisher's price has gone up since I bought my books, will I receive
the benefit of that prices increase? . -
A. Yes. Fcr instance, if you bought your book fcr $9.00, and the pub
. : lisher's list price is now $1 0.00, you wi:l tgst $3.00, not $5.40.
