Used Books & Media*

PLEASE NOTE:
May 1-12 our Eastwood location will be taking a break from buying used media (DVD's, CD's,and Vinyl). We'll be back to normal hours on Monday, May 13.

Thank you for your patience.


We buy only books & media we feel are able to be resold. Due to changing market conditions and inventory levels, it is impossible to say what we will be interested in on any given day.

We offer 20% of the resale value of your books cash, or 30% in store credit. Store credit has no expiration date and can be used at any of our five Schuler Books & Music locations.

We offer 25% of the resale value of the media in cash, or 35% in store credit.

Books / media are evaluated on condition, our current inventory, current retail value and demand.

Please note that we do not do appraisals.

Additional guidelines may apply.  Contact your local Schuler store for details.
