    The Deal:

    Bring us your unwanted books: we accept all genres of fiction, including science fiction & fantasy, romance, crime and chick-lit and we also accept your old graphic novels.
    Please note that we do not accept non-fiction and children's books!

    We prefer mass-market paperbacks (pocket books) but will also accept large paperbacks and hardcovers.

    You will receive ABC Vouchers for your books, with which you can pay in all our stores. They are valid indefinitely. Please note that we do not pay in cash.
    Depending on the possibility for resale, it is up to us to decide how much we will give you for your books. We retain the right to refuse books that we cannot sell.
