MBS Direct works with your school to determine the best option for serving your students during buyback season. That way, when it's time for students to sell their books back at the end of the term, they will get the most in convenience and value.
Unique to MBS Direct, Guaranteed Buyback is a purchasing option designed to give your students more money back — and to help them understand the true cost of textbook ownership. When they purchase their books at the beginning of the term, and see titles marked Guaranteed Buyback, they will see how much they will receive when they sell their books back at the end of the term.

We offer an on-campus buyback option for many of our higher education partners, so students can easily sell their books back at a convenient central location.
Whether it's used or new, we take pride in the quality of course materials we provide. MBS Direct expects normal wear and tear as students use their books, but to ensure any student who orders a title from us gets the best condition possible, we have quality standards in place to govern what titles we can buy. Books that come to MBS Direct with water damage, missing, torn or loose pages and other problems will be rejected from MBS Service Company's buyback program and are either discarded or sent back to the last owner.
You already know that your students can save by ordering their books from MBS Direct, but did you know that they'll also receive more money when they sell those books back? Students who purchased their course materials from MBS Direct and then sell them back receive 80% more than students who shopped elsewhere.
