1. Textbooks adopted by professors for the following term AND when more inventory is needed are bought back during the end of semester buyback at a higher price.
2. Textbooks not adopted for the following semester, or materials where the Bookstore has purchased as many as needed, will be bought back at the current wholesale value. That price is determined by national demand, edition status, and inventory at the wholesaler's warehouse. Keep in mind that some books have no buyback value whatsoever.
3. Whether or not the book has all its pieces (CDs, kits, etc., if applicable). The DCTC Bookstore does not buy back examination, desk, professor or other complimentary copies of textbooks from professors nor international copies of books. We will not buy books with water or other excessive damage. Books with excessive damage that are shipped to us or our buyback partners will be returned. If you have questions about the condition of your book for resale, contact us for further information.

Textbook buyback
|
||||
| End-of-Semester Buyback At the end of each Semester, typically during Finals Week, a textbook wholesale company will be on campus to purchase students’ textbooks. They will be buying textbooks on behalf of DCTC Bookstore, as well as textbooks that will be used at other colleges and universities.
|
||||
| How It Works At buyback, students must bring their Student ID along with the textbooks that they wish to sell. The Bookstore employee or Wholesale Buyer will scan the bar code on the Textbook and the system will display the price being offered for the textbook. Buyback transactions are in cash. We are not able to produce checks, credit a card, or apply the funds to your Financial Aid. In most cases, a receipt is not required for textbook buyback.
