WHAT IS TRADE CREDIT?
In short, trade credit reduces your out-of-pocket cost on new and gently-read books.

HOW DO I GET TRADE CREDIT?
That’s easy! Simply bring in your gently-read books (limit 1 grocery bag per day, please). Once we have inspected them for quality and quantity limits, you will receive 20% of the cover price in trade credit.
