[ Services | Policy Information | Hours ] The Cottage Bookstore has been institutionally
owned and operated by Wright State University since 1979. The store serves the
students of the Lake Campus of Wright State and the surrounding communities.
Because of the rising costs of new textbooks, the Cottage Bookstore attempts to obtain as many used books as possible. Used books are obtained from 2 main sources: wholesalers, and students who sell their books back at the end of the quarter. The books purchased from students are priced at 75% of the cost of new. When selling your books back, you will find that several factors influence the price you will get, including: if the book will be used again, if newer editions are out, the condition of the book, the national demand for the book, and the current stock on hand. Buyback is conducted at the end of each quarter, generally beginning during finals week for books we will be using the next quarter. We also buy year round for a wholesale company in Chicago. Refunds are given for the first ten days of each quarter. You must have your receipt. New books must be unmarked. Credit card purchases will be refunded to the credit card account. Every attempt is made to have books in stock at least 2 weeks prior to the beginning of a new quarter. If we have not received title information or if enrollment is low, books may not be available the first week of classes. We do not carry textbooks for classes at Wright State's Dayton campus. We do carry text for select off-campus courses. Charges are available for students receiving financial aid, WIA, BVR, BSVI, VA, or TRA. The bookstore must have paperwork or vouchers verifying the charge before any purchases can be made.
