Book Trader

Great experience selling my textbooks. Pleasant customer service, good buy-back pricing and it was fast/efficient -- just a few steps away from IUSB's campus! Definitely told all my friends who graduated with me to try out Book Trader to sell their books, too!

Recently graduated and sold some old textbooks for the first time this week and let me tell you, this place is WONDERFUL. The man who I am assuming runs the business is absolute lovely. He is so kind and friendly, which is SO appreciative. And what I love most is how this business is truly representing a great cause: helping those in need and doing their part to help the environment. I was so impressed and loved what this place stood for so much that I’ve been telling people all about it and even recommended it on my instagram story. Absolutely recommend!!!

The employees are very engaging and helpful! The prices are reasonable when buying textbooks and I got the most money back possible for my used textbook! It was defiantly a great feeling and a friendly professional environment. I will continue to come here in the future!

Book Trader - South Bend is a great resource to buy or rent textbooks. Considering I live in the Elkhart area, I love that I can call to see if there is a book available and they either tell me at that moment or call me back with the information within a few minutes. The books are in great shape and are reasonably priced compared to the campus bookstore. The gentleman at the counter is always polite and helpful also!

Taking used textbooks to Book Trader was so fast and easy! We got fair compensation for all that we brought, and we were even able to donate books that we didn’t feel like lugging back home! Highly recommend!

I had a stack of loose leaf books that I had been sitting on for a semester or two and was looking to get rid of them. The college doesn’t buy back loose leaf text books, so I called the Book Trader store in South Bend. The gentleman I spoke to was very polite and let me know that they do buy back loose leaf books. I went in a few days later and he was able to buy back all of my books that I had brought in, one wasn’t really worth anything because it was outdated, but I was really only looking to get them out of my closet, the customer service was great, and the money I got back was more than I thought I would. I would recommend this book store to any college student looking to get rid of their books.

I was super nervous coming in, because I have finally graduate and I've got this milk crate full of books and I was so ready to be looked at weird. But I had such friendly help and I didn't feel like a stranger, it was easy and fast. There's not a lot of places in town to sell books and honestly this was my favorite place.
