About Us
“Our warehouse in Dallas, TX. Where your books are received and processed.”
Who We Are
We’re a textbook buyback and resale business that’s been helping students get better value for their books since 2017. What started as a small local project on the Princeton University campus in New Jersey has grown into a nationwide operation, complete with a warehouse in Dallas, Texas, and a team that’s passionate about changing the way textbook buying and selling works.
Why We Started
We started this company after seeing how much students were overpaying for textbooks, and how little they were offered when selling them back. College bookstores and major resellers were taking advantage of students. We knew there had to be a better way.
What Makes Us Different
We’re not just a textbook company. We’re a data-driven business. We’ve built internal software tools that analyze hundreds of thousands of textbook titles daily, allowing us to stay on top of market shifts and price our offers in real time.
This gives us an edge when it comes to pricing accurately, buying smart, and giving sellers better value. We’re constantly adjusting to the market and using that knowledge to help students and institutions get more from their books.
How We Work
How We Work
We don’t just work with students; we also buy books in bulk from institutions across the country. Our warehouse handles sorting, processing, and fulfillment operations to keep high-quality textbooks circulating and accessible.
Giving Back
We believe that doing good business also means doing good for others. Our contributions have helped fund clean water wells and support hunger relief efforts in underserved communities through organizations like Embrace Relief.
“A clean water well; funded through our annual donation efforts.”
