- • Item condition is different from quoted
- • Item ISBN is different from quoted
- • Item not initially quoted in order added to package
In any of these cases, book-buyers reserve the right in their sole discretion to adjust Seller payment accordingly. Each vendor has its own policies on if it will or will not return your package; please make sure to read through your vendor’s policies carefully.
TRANSFER OF OWNERSHIP
Upon receipt of a shipped package at the book-buyer’s warehouse, ownership of the contents of the shipment transfer completely and wholly to the book-buyer. Book-buyers reserve the sole right to determine the value and condition of any included items according to their own standards and policies. Book-buyers also reserve the right to resell, recycle, or donate any item obtained through a buyback shipment.
MINIMUM AND MAXIMUM ORDER SIZE
The maximum number of books you can sell can be seen in the quantity drop-down menu. This maximum cannot be exceeded over 1 or multiple orders in a span of 30 days. One seller may only have one account. If it is found that a seller has been selling books through multiple accounts, all accounts will be suspended.
BOOK SHIPPING PROCEDURE
Upon completion of a buyback order, BookDeal will provide a free, printable shipping label to the Seller in PDF format. To send the order, the Seller must print the label, package the book(s) into a durable shipping box, seal the box, and attach the provided label. The Seller must then bring the package to the carrier.
BookDeal is not responsible for any loss, damage, lateness, or mishandling that may occur while an item is in transit. If you are concerned that your shipment might be missing, late, or damaged, please contact the shipping company.
While not required, BookDeal recommends for Sellers to follow the Packaging My Books guidelines.
Book-buyers issue payment according to the contents of a shipment, not the contents of the onsite buyback quote. Therefore, no payment will be issued for books that are included in the quote but not received. Likewise, books received in a shipment that were not in the original quote will be paid for according to the current quote price at the time book-buyers process the order.
Our prepaid shipping labels for FedEx and UPS have insurance for up to $100, meaning that if FedEx or UPS damages or loses your package, they will compensate you. If your materials are worth more than $100 or our prepaid shipping label is for USPS, you can buy additional insurance. If your materials have been lost during transit, please contact Customer Service for help.
Each vendor has its own policies on if it will or will not return your package; please make sure to read through your vendor’s policies carefully.
If you create multiple small orders containing only one or two books instead of putting them into one order, we may charge you with shipping fee for every additional order.
Multiple accounts are not allowed and will be suspended.
BOOK ORDERS FROM OUTSIDE THE US
BookDeal does not accept buyback orders from outside the US at this time.
BOOKS SENT IN ERROR
Book-buyers are not responsible nor liable for any items received that were not included in the original order. If you believe you have sent an item in error, please contact BookDeal Customer Service immediately with information about the item. Books received that are not on the original order will be paid at current buyback value or recycled or donated if the book-buyers are not able to buy the book. We are unable to send these books back.
PAYMENT PROCEDURE
- • how long shipping takes
- • Once the vendor has received your book, payment will be issued within 5 days. The absolute timeline of your payment depends on the distance between you and the vendor because of the time shipping takes.
- • What forms of payment available
- • Final quotes cannot be higher than initial quotes.
TERMINATION
BookDeal may terminate your use or registration with or without cause at any time without notice to you. We reserve the right to discontinue the communication with the customer if they choose to use profanities or threats.
Sellers may only use ONE account. Creating multiple accounts circumvents our site’s thresholds and policies. A Seller who is found to be in possession of multiple accounts may be subject to payment delays, account suspension, or account termination.
If our system has detected that you are using forged seller information, such as using a fake address and phone number. Thus, the account and any associated accounts have been suspended. After the account is suspended, all the items in transit or received become the property of BookDeal without any possibility of return and payment. You are not permitted to use BookDeal in any way during your suspension. This includes registering a new account or using another existing account.
In the event of a breach by you of these Terms of Service, any such termination by BookDeal shall be in addition to and without prejudice to such rights and remedies as may be available to BookDeal, including injunction and other equitable remedies. The disclaimer, limitations on liability, indemnity and termination provisions of these Terms of Service shall survive the termination or expiry of these Terms of Service.
INAUTHENTIC BOOKS POLICY
BookDeal reserves the right to inquire how items were originally acquired and request proof of ownership. While under investigation, payment may be delayed or withheld.
Any items submitted to BookDeal that are determined to be illegally obtained or printed will be surrendered to the proper authorities (i.e., law enforcement, publishers, or retailers).
DISPUTES; ARBITRATION
BookDeal.com is committed to customer satisfaction, so if you have a problem or dispute, we will try to resolve your concerns. But if we are unsuccessful, you or we may pursue claims as explained in this section.
To give us an opportunity to resolve informally any disputes between you and us arising out of or relating in any way to the Website, this Agreement, our Privacy Policy, any services or products provided, any dealings with our customer service agents, or any representations made by us (“Claims”), you agree to communicate your Claim to BookDeal.com by filing a claim. You agree not to bring any suit or to initiate arbitration proceedings until 60 days after the date on which you communicated your Claim to Customer Support have elapsed. If we are not able to resolve your Claim within 60 days, you may seek relief through arbitration or in small claims court, as set forth below.
You and BookDeal.com agree that any and all Claims will be resolved by binding arbitration, rather than in court, except that you and we may assert Claims on an individual basis in small claims court if they qualify. This includes any Claims you assert against us, our subsidiaries, travel suppliers or any companies offering products or services through us (which are beneficiaries of this arbitration agreement). This also includes any Claims that arose before you accepted this Agreement regardless of whether prior versions of the Agreement required arbitration.
There is no judge or jury in arbitration, and court review of an arbitration award is limited. However, an arbitrator can award on an individual basis the same damages and relief as a court (including statutory damages, attorneys’ fees and costs). The arbitrator must follow and enforce this Agreement.
Arbitrations will be conducted by the American Arbitration Association (AAA) under its rules, including the AAA Consumer Rules. Payment of all filing, administration and arbitrator fees will be governed by the AAA's rules, except as provided in this section. If your total Claims seek less than $10,000, we will reimburse you for filing fees you pay to the AAA and will pay arbitrator’s fees.
Any and all proceedings to resolve Claims will be conducted only on an individual basis and not in a class, consolidated, or representative action. The arbitrator will have authority to decide issues as to the scope of this arbitration agreement and the arbitrability of Claims. If for any reason a Claim proceeds in court rather than in arbitration, you and we each waive any right to a jury trial.
To begin an arbitration proceeding, you must send a letter requesting arbitration and describing your Claims to info@bookdeal.com. If we request arbitration against you, we will give you notice at the email address or street address you have provided. The AAA's rules and filing instructions are available at www.adr.org or by calling 1-800-778-7879.
This arbitration agreement shall be governed by and enforced in accordance with the Federal Arbitration Act and federal arbitration law. An arbitration decision may be confirmed by any court with competent jurisdiction.
