Amazon Textbook Buyback – Sell Your Used Textbooks!

Everybody has some old textbooks at home – but did you know that you can use them to earn money?

The Amazon Textbook Buyback Program makes it possible. Sell textbooks to Amazon – even those that you bought elsewhere or that were given to you – and get valuable Amazon gift cards through a simple trade-in. In fact, you can sell electronics, video games, gadgets, and much more as well.

The trade-in prices that Amazon’s textbook buyback offers are actually quite outstanding.

Where else would you get up to 50% – for some textbooks even 80% – than on Amazon’s textbook trade-in store?

Better still, Amazon’s textbook buyback is simple.

As a first step, go to the Amazon Trade-In Store and search for your textbooks. The website will show you if they are available for Amazon trade-in and what the amont is that you will be paid for each item. Should a book not be available for trade-in, you can still opt to sell it yourself on the Amazon Marketplace.

Second, open a trade-in account, insert your textbook’s details, print and afix the provided free shipping label, and ship your items at no cost via U.S. Postal Service or UPS to Amazon. Your textbooks will then be processed and verified and, if they are in good enough condition, you will be sent your gift card within a few days simply for trading in your old textbooks.

It’s as easy as that! Selling books can even be done using Amazon’s Android or iOS app. Also, certain trade-ins can even qualify for immediate payment, that is your gift card will be issued instantly upon submitting your items and without the need to wait for them to be processed.

In terms of condition, in order to successfully participate in Amazon’s textbook buyback program, your books should meet certain minimum standards. Textbooks that have torn covers or pages, burns, or water damage are not eligible for trade-in.  Also, study guides and prep books should not have any answers in them.

However, books that show minor wear are considered to be in ‘good’ condition, even if they are already lightly highlighted (but have no notes or other markings). In case an item cannot be accepted, it will be returned to you at no cost, meaning that there is no risk involved in selling books to Amazon.

The Amazon textbook buyback program is easy, fun, and pays well – go ahead and try it today!

PS: Amazon now also offers free two-day shipping for college students.
