AMAZON TEXTBOOK BUY-BACK PROGRAM CHALLENGES WESTERN BOOKSTORE
BELLINGHAM, May 21st 2012 – Amazon Buy-Back Program promises Visa and Amazon credit reimbursement for all students and emphasizes the more diverse titles they are willing to accept. The program will be located in the Sehome Haggen parking lot during finals week June 4 th – 8th from 11am – 4pm. They have approved the program with Sehome Haggen to provide students with a convenient location to get money for their textbooks. This gives students another way to save money on textbooks. Amazon accepts more titles and editions than the Western Bookstore and can give students more money. Rob Radecki, an Amazon Marketing Representative, says Amazon can provide up to 70 percent more money for textbooks. This gives students the opportunity to get more “bang for their books.” Amazon’s scanner system looks up any textbook in the database and will immediately let students know if it will be accepted, along with the buy-back price. The Amazon Buy-Back Program is being operated with the essential help of two students from Western’s DECA club.
