What is the BarristerBooks.com Law School Textbook Buyback Program?
The Law School Textbook Buyback program allows students to sell their used law textbooks back for cash or BarristerBooks credit ("LawRewards"). The program is designed to help students save money by offering a way to recoup some of the costs of their textbooks while promoting sustainability through the reuse of materials.

How do I know if my law school textbook is eligible for buyback?
First, search your law school textbook's 13-digit ISBN in our Buyback search field. If your book does not appear or is not found, it means we are not currently purchasing that title currently. If your book does appear, eligibility for buyback depends on the condition of the book and current demand. Generally, textbooks that are in "very good" condition (e.g., no water damage, missing pages, no highlighting, or writing on more than 20% of the total page count) and are in their current edition are eligible. 

How much will I get for my law school textbook?
The amount you’ll receive depends on the current demand for the textbook. You can choose to receive cash or even more in BarristerBooks/LawRewards store credit. To find out the buyback value for your textbook, you can simply enter the ISBN of your textbook in the search field and we will provide you both the cash and store credit amounts if we are currently buying your book.

How do I sell my law school textbooks?
To sell your textbooks, follow these steps:
 Search for your textbooks using the ISBN number or title.
 Check if your textbooks are eligible and review the buyback offers.
 If you're satisfied with the offer, select your payment method (cash or store credit).
 Ship your book(s) using a prepaid shipping label provided by BarristerBooks.
 Receive your compensation after receipt in our warehouse.

What condition should my textbooks be in?
Textbooks should be in good condition to be eligible for buyback. Acceptable conditions include:
 No water damage
 No missing pages
 No major tears or creases
 Strong cover and binding/spine
 Minimal writing or highlighting - less than 20% of the total page count of the book should contain writing/highlighting.

If your textbook is damaged or heavily annotated, the buyback value will not be honored and your book will be recycled. We will not be able to ship the book back to you.

Is there a limit to how many textbooks I can sell?
While we do have cap limiits on the number of any particular textbook will purchase, there is no limit to how many textbooks you can sell as long as they meet the eligibility requirements. However, if you have a large number of textbooks, it’s a good idea to contact BarristerBooks at 877-856-2772 to ensure a smooth process.

What if my textbook isn’t accepted for buyback?
If your textbook is not accepted for buyback, you can consider donating it, recycling it, or keeping it for personal use. Some local organizations or law schools may accept donations of used textbooks.

How will I receive payment for my textbooks?
Once your textbooks are accepted, you can choose to receive payment via check mailed to the address you provide or store credit. Store credit can be used for future purchases at BarristerBooks.com in the form of LawRewards. Payments are typically processed within a few business days after receipt at our warehouse.

What should I do if I need assistance with the buyback process?
If you have any questions or need help with the buyback process, please contact our support team at 866-808-5635 or email us at custserv@barristerbooks.com. Our support hours are 10am-4pm CST Monday through Friday.

How to I ship my eligible buyback to BarristerBooks?
Once you complete the buyback process, you will receive a pre-paid US Postal Service label that you can print and affix to a box containing the buyback. Please ensure that you securely package the book in a box you provide so that it is not damaged in transit. We are not responsible for textbooks that are damaged or lost in transit to us. You can drop this package off at the post office, a post office box, or hand to your local postal carrier.
