We offer store credit for gently used books.

Sorry, we do not buy books.

How does store credit work?

• A credit account is established for you, and all information is kept in our computer system (no card for you to keep track of!)
• Store credit is good for HALF of any USED BOOK purchase. Example: if you are buying $10 worth of used books, we charge you $5 (plus tax) and deduct $5 from your store credit.
• We cannot allow a drop off of books for us to “look at”; all books left at the store become property of Aaron’s Books. (We have such limited space that once the books are in our tiny storage area we can’t keep them separated.)
