FAQ

Where do you ship?

Textbooks.com primarily ships within the United States; shipping speed and cost depend on the option chosen at checkout. International orders may be available but expect higher rates and longer transit—confirm availability during checkout.

What are the return and rental policies?

Return and rental policies vary by item: new items are generally returnable in original condition within the merchant’s stated window, used items depend on seller terms, and rentals must be returned by the due date to avoid replacement or late fees. Always review the item-specific policy before ordering.

Are there student discounts or promo codes?

Yes—promotional discounts and occasional student offers appear seasonally. Rentals and used titles typically offer the largest savings. Sign up for email alerts to receive codes and early-notice promotions.
