Quick answers:

What is an overstock book?

Overstock happens when publishers print too many copies, or when a store returns books back to the publisher. Overstock allows us to offer splendid titles at a fraction of the retail cost!

What condition are overstock books in?

Overstock books are new books! They sometimes have a small mark to indicate that they've been remaindered. Other times, they might exhibit signs of shelf wear, like mild scuffs or leftover retail stickers. If we receive a book that isn't in good condition, we set it aside and don't sell it.

Do you accept returns?

All our books come with a money back guarantee. If for any reason you aren't happy with your purchase, just let Nicholle know (help@bushelandpeckbooks.com) and she'll issue you a full refund. No need to mail books back, either! Just donate them to a good cause and we'll call it even :)

How long do books take to ship?

Orders usually ship in 1 business day but can take up to 10 business days if we're waiting on incoming stock. We'll get your books to you as quickly as we can!
