Customer Service - Returns - Replacement Guarantee
Books and Bundles REPLACEMENT GUARANTEE
As a family of book lovers, we know how scary it can be to buy used books only to receive less-than-stellar books. That's why we've developed our own custom book-sorting processes to give you a quality and consistent product, every time. Every book that passes through our triple-check process is touched, graded, and bagged by at least three people. Our books are sorted, resorted, and then shipped to you!
We are so certain that we can deliver a reliable product to you every time, that we back every order by our own guarantee.
Book Replacement Guarantee - If any of our books do not meet our stringent quality guidelines, we will replace them free of charge.
Limit 1 replacement request per order
Requests Must Be Placed Within 10 days of receiving order
For all orders,
Our free replacement service will replace the following problems in an order
- Heavily Damaged Exterior to be determined by customer service
- Heavy Water damage
- Heavy soiling
- Duplicated within order
- Religious in non-religious products (this does not apply to commonly celebrated holidays.)
- Heavily written in/on - only when this is determined to be excessive
- Wrong language
- Unreadable text - this means writing or stickers heavy enough to obscure reading parts of the text.
- Missing pages/parts of books - this does not apply to paperback covers with small nicks/tears or small missing corners.
- Not age appropriate (under ANY circumstance) - Age level is up to interpretation in a lot of ways. We currently use our own custom software that pull data from Amazon to determine age level and grade level. A good example of this is you may order 2nd grade books and you determine that it is more of a 3rd grade reading level.
- Genre Disagreement - All of our books are genre sorted using software that pulls genre information from websites like GoodReads. We do not replace books that you believe do not fall in the genre category ordered. We are happy to provide more details on items sent as needed, simply reach out!
- Customer does not like book - Our books are random lots so as much as it pains us, you may not love every book you receive, give it to a friend or donate it! We just ask that you please don’t throw books away.
- 'Outdated' - We grade by condition of the book, not when it was written.

Unfortunately, due to the way our back-end operations works, we are unable to cancel orders once placed. Once an order has been created in our system it is filled quickly and we are unable to remove it from the fulfillment operation without significant disruption. If you need to change your address please message us on Facebook asap (this pops up on our computers so it is the only way to make sure your address is changed). Please include your name, order, order number and platform ordered.

We cannot be held responsible for items returned to us due to unacceptable content/restricted materials, etc.
Unfortunately, we have no way of knowing the guidelines set by individual facilities. It is the responsibility of the customer to make sure the item(s) being sent are acceptable. All items returned to us are subject to a restocking fee.
Because most cases can be prevented by the buyer, we charge a 50% restocking fee for each item returned to us. Please note: Due to where our warehouse is located and the way we ship, not all orders are actually returned to us, even if the post office tells you it is. We do not offer refunds of any type if we do not receive your package.
