New and used books are sold at the bookstore. Used books are sold "AS IS." Defective new books will be exchanged at no cost. All unsold books that will not be used the next semester will be returned to publishers.

Textbook Return Policy

Please keep your receipts as receipts are needed for refunds.

Books may be returned for a full refund only during the DROP/ADD period of the semester providing certain conditions are met (Fall Semester Drop/Add dates are August 19 - 27, 2010):

  • DO NOT write or mark in your books until you are certain you will actually use them
  • The original cash register receipt MUST accompany all items
  • Books are in excellent condition and have not been written in and shrink-wrapped material must be returned UNOPENED
  • Textbooks containing Access Codes must not have been breached
  • All media and/or CD's sold with book must be returned with book UNOPENED
  • Books that are shrink-wrapped are non-refundable if opened

The Bookstore encourages students to attend class before purchasing books.

Cash refunds will not be made; checks will be issued AFTER MID-SEMESTER for all purchases made by cash, check, or credit cards. Textbooks purchased after the drop/add period are nonrefundable. If you have written in a new book, 50% will be deducted from the purchase price. This includes pencil markings or a carelessly handled book.

Clothing/Supplies/Electronic Items

Calculators and voice recorders are non refundable. Clothing may be exchanged during the drop/add period if approved by the manager after inspection for soil or damage. Supply items are non refundable if opened or damaged. No refund on sale merchandise.

Financial Aid

Students may charge against Financial Aid award balances during the Drop/Add period ONLY. (Fall Semester Drop/Add dates are August 19 - 27, 2010)

All purchases for books, supplies, apparel, etc. must be made during this period. No returns, exchanges, or additional purchases will be processed after this period. There is a $5.00 minimum purchase amount for additional charges to Financial Aid Vouchers.

Check Cashing Policy

Students may cash personal checks for the amount of $5.00 or $5.00 over the amount of purchase. A service charge of $30.00 shall be assessed for returned checks. Check cashing privileges will be suspended if checks are returned.

Book Buyback

Books are bought back only during the period known as Buyback. The Buyback is held during finals each semester. A Waycross College ID will be REQUIRED. We arrange for a wholesale book company to be on campus each semester during finals to purchase undamaged books from students. Purchase price is determined by the wholesale company and not Waycross College. Unfortunately, old editions, out of print books, and damaged books are of no value to bookstores or used book companies and may not be purchased.

PLEASE KEEP YOUR RECEIPT!
