    First time selling in a while, I brought in 5 graphic novels and 2 hardcover novels and received about 15$ and some change in return. I looked around and found four paper backs one of which has a damaged cover, bent pages and stains. I love used books this is not the problem. The total came to about 17$ and I asked if they could make it an even trade or discount the damaged book since I had just sold to them. They knocked off 0.25 cents and made me get out my debit card for the additional 1.75. I only brought in my books to sell because I'm broke but I like to read, it was just a disappointing experience. I realize it's a business, I just won't sell to them anymore.
