The Alpha Textbook Buyback opportunity will work as follows:
- Alpha Textbooks staff will take in the books and credit your account accordingly
- When you order your new or used books over the summer the credit will be applied to your order.
- For Grade 12 students and students not returning, Alpha Textbooks will mail you a cheque for the texts returned, or you may call them directly.
- You can also sell your books to Alpha Textbooks anytime at their store located at 3709 Chesswood Drive if you cannot come to the book drop off. Please check their website for seasonal hours.
- Textbooks are usually credited between 40% – 50% of their used value. Paperbacks are usually credited between 10% – 25% of their used value. Books that are heavily worn/damaged would receive a lower value or be rejected completely.
- Alpha Textbooks does not accept any used workbooks.
- It is possible that some of the books used this year will become obsolete or will no longer be used by Crestwood next year. Alpha Textbooks will try to inform you of this information at the time of your book return. These books might not have any resale value.
