Used Titles Online:
You can BROWSE & SEARCH
the USED books in our online inventory, via our account at Amazon.com here.
New Titles:
We are building up a consistent in-stock offering of our most requested titles that don't come in as used books often enough, esp. when available in reasonably priced, paperback formats.
Here's a list of what we've got this month.
We restock NEW books weekly from a huge distributor (Ingram) that carries numerous publishers, including most recent releases you may read or hear about. If we don't currently list the title you'd like, we can probably get you one and you can pick it up here with no additional shipping fees. Email title inquiries
- OR - we can have NEW books shipped directly to you (anywhere in the 50 United States) directly from the warehouse, and they'll even gift wrap!
Title Search:
If your title is not currently available through Ingram, we can dig deeper into it and call you with what we find. Maybe we can get it new elsewhere or find it used.
Other Great Stuff:
We carry stationery from
Laughing Elephant
, Green Tiger Press
, Stella Marrs
, Northern Sun
, Syracuse Cultural Workers
, Galison
and more. We also stock
Putumayo world music cds
and a varied selection of booky & subversive posters & postcards. We can ship to just about anywhere - Email here to inquire.
Trade Credit for Used Books:
- If you have gently used books which are languishing on your bookshelves and you'd like to give them a fresh lease on life, bring them to us for a possible store credit.
- We trade books for store credit anytime we're open, except the last hour of the day, and we do very much appreciate a call beforehand if you have more than a few grocery bags full.
- Picture ID is required, and we strongly recommend that you leave your email address so that we can contact you, if needed.
- We'll keep any credit balance in our database. You only need to make at least one purchase a year to keep your credit active. We don't pay cash. We can't combine trade credit discounts with other discounts, such as educator, senior or book club/quantity discounts. But we can add friends or family members to your account if you'd like to share your credit.
- We will look at the books you bring in, and once we've selected the used books we think we can resell, we will offer you approximately 1/2 of our estimated retail price as a credit. Your credit can be applied to up to 75% off of in-store used books and up to 25% off of everything else: brand new books, stationery, ephemera, records, posters, and of course anything we order for you (new or used). We don't pay cash and we only trade for used books - no other items.
- For example: you bring in a stack of books we can use and we intend to price them at a total of $20. You receive a $10 credit which is entered into our database.
*You find a $4 used book. We pull your name up & your credit pays for $3, you pay $1 plus sales tax in actual money. Credit pays for up to 75% off all in-store used books.
*You find a $4 new book. We pull up your account & your credit pays for $1. You'll be asked to pay the remaining $3 plus sales tax in cash (or charge card). Credit pays for up to 25% of everything other than in-store used books; new bestsellers & classics but we also have birthday cards, postcards, blank journals, as well as antique postcards, posters, ephemera and even some antiques & records.
- We ask that you make at least one purchase a year to keep your credit active. This is also important for our continuing loyal clients, so that we can keep your account updated.
- Receive our monthly emails to learn about any policy changes, community issues, and all of our discounts and events. And if we find photos or keepsakes tucked into the pages of your books, we like to be able to get them back to you!
- Thanks for trading with us at Bluestocking Books, San Diego and keeping the great circle of reading alive!
For best results just call 619-296-1424 or email your author & title to info[AT]bluestockingbooks.com and we'll get right back to you.
