Trade-In Policy

What do we buy and what don't we buy

We’re not picky . . . we’re selective!  Our inventory is large and our storage space is small, so we can’t take everything that’s brought to us.

We buy both children and adult books that are in good to great condition. This means that all books must be in good condition. Paperbacks must be like-new in order for us to consider them. There can be no markings within any of the texts — no highlighting, underlining, or marginalia.

We do not accept mass market romance novels, ex-library books, or out-of-date material such as computer manuals, travel guides, and education books. I’m sorry, but we cannot take:

  • BOOKS THAT SMELL LIKE CIGARETTES/SMOKE
  • BOOKS WITH CREASED SPINES OR COVERS
  • BOOKS WITH TORN DUST JACKETS (UNLESS ANTIQUE/COLLECTIBLE)
  • ENCYCLOPEDIAS
  • DIRTY, MOLDY, WATER-DAMAGED OR BROKEN BOOKS

Book Condition Requirements

Books must not have any underlining, highlighting, and water damage. Books must be free of all stickers, all pages should be securely bound, and the spine unbroken.

 

What kind of payment will I receive?

We are currently accepting used books for 5 DKK Cash, or 10 DKK in Store Credit. Store credit can go toward 50% of your future purchases.
Please contact us if you would like to trade-in any of your books.

When can I drop off the books?

We can arrange to pick up books in Copenhagen and surrounding area. If you live outside Copenhagen and surrounding areas and have a large number of books (100+), then please contact us and we can determine when and where we can collect them. Please be sure to contact us at info@owlbooks.dk to make arrangements.

How many used books may I bring in for consideration?

Due to a limit on time, we ask that you bring in no more than 30 (the size of one regular size moving box). If you have more, than please contact us and we can arrange a time or you can leave the books with us for evaluation when time permits.

 

One last thing...

Please be sure to pack books in small boxes or bags for safe transportation down the stairs!

…and please be careful when lifting a large quantity of books or boxes so as not to hurt your back.
