Common Questions
Answers to the usual questions.
-
How long until I get my quote?
We reply within 2 business days, often sooner. If your email arrives on a weekend, expect a reply by end of day Tuesday.
-
What conditions do you accept?
Acceptable, Good, Very Good, and Brand New. Writing, highlighting, and minor wear are fine. Missing pages, water damage, or a broken spine usually disqualify a book.
-
What if my book is in poor condition?
Send it anyway with an accurate condition note. We will quote what we can pay and tell you honestly if a book is not resellable.
-
What if my ISBN is not in your system?
Enter the ISBN and a short title note. A real person reviews every quote, so we can handle unlisted titles that still have market demand.
-
How do I get paid?
Zelle, Venmo, or PayPal. Payment goes out 3-5 business days after we confirm your shipment was received and the books match the quote.
-
How much does it cost to ship?
Nothing. We email a prepaid shipping label once you accept the quote. Drop the box at any authorized carrier location.
-
Can I sell old editions?
Yes, within a reasonable range. Editions that are one or two behind current usually have value. Very old editions are quoted case by case.
-
Do you accept non-law textbooks?
Not at this time. FrugalText is a law-textbook specialist, so our quotes reflect the law-student market. Refer non-law titles to a general buyback service.
