FAQ - Sell Used Law Textbooks
How should I pack my textbooks to send them to World of Books?
To ensure your textbooks arrive safely and in good condition, please follow these packing guidelines:
- Use a Sturdy Box: Choose a box that’s strong enough to hold your textbooks without risk of breaking or crushing during transit.
- Protect Your Books: Wrap each book individually in protective material such as bubble wrap or packing paper to prevent damage.
- Fill Empty Spaces: Use packing material like crumpled paper or foam peanuts to fill any gaps in the box and prevent books from shifting during shipping.
- Seal the Box Securely: Tape the box closed with strong packing tape, making sure all seams are sealed tightly.
Following these steps will help ensure that your textbooks are protected and reach us in the best possible condition. For more detailed instructions, please visit our Packaging Guidelines page.

How much will I get for my textbooks?
Enter your textbook's ISBN to get an instant quote. Prices vary based on demand, condition, and edition.
Can I sell older editions or outdated textbooks?
Yes, we buy older editions if there's still demand for them. Enter your ISBN to get an instant quote - if we're offering a price, we're buying that edition.
