RETURNS POLICY

(updated for spring 2025 semester starting in January)

When you need to return books or other items you bought from us,  we want to make it easy, but we have to insist on the following:

All returns must be accompanied by your original Receipt or Packing Slip.

Bring returned items to us in person or ship them back at your expense (must be postmarked by refund deadline). 

Returned items must go to the same store where you bought them.

TEXTBOOKS are refundable only during the refund period. The deadline to return books purchased for spring courses starting in January is Friday, January 10th, 2025 for FAU* and Tuesday, January 14th, 2025 for PBSC. All other sales are final.

*The refund deadline for FAU intersession courses starting on 12/14/24 is 12/16/24.

eBOOKS and digital courseware are refundable for two weeks from purchase if not redeemed. To receive a refund you will have to visit one of our locations with a copy of the email or register receipt you received that shows the redemption code.

NEW textbooks must still be in NEW condition.   Books sold shrink-wrapped must still be shrink-wrapped.   Textbooks purchased or returned after the refund period are not returnable for refund, exchange, or credit.

Clothing, logo-imprinted merchandise, and giftware are returnable within fourteen days of the purchase date, if unopened and in new condition, with tags attached. These returns can be applied to exchanges or a store credit (no refunds).

Credit card purchases may only be credited to the SAME card used on the original transaction. Please have the card with you, as we do not store your credit or debit card number.  

THE FOLLOWING ITEMS ARE NOT RETURNABLE:  test forms (“Scantrons”), test prep books, paper, pens, school supplies, goggles, backpacks, electronic items (including calculators), computer items and peripherals.
