Where to Buy Used Law Books and Casebooks, Case briefs and Law Study Guides and Aids.
We get lots of emails from all kinds of students about all kinds of problems. One that we have yet to address is where to get used law books from good law bookstores and online sources.
Without a doubt a good honest privately owned law bookstore to sell and purchase used books from is the Law Bookstore. We have already reviewed them in the Law bookstore section.
2019 Update The law bookstore is going out of business. Here is the Law Bookstore’s web link. http://www.thelawbookstore.com. If they still have items left it is a good place to buy.
Online sources of Used Law books
There are two main sources for used law books, guides, and aids online. You can use Ebay or Amazon.
Stay as far away from any transactions you can with Ebay no matter what the rating of the person selling the used law books. We have dealt with the PayPal system and were ripped off to the tune of $238. One of the transactions for casebooks was very wrong as three of the books were out of date as they were the wrong edition. We made the mistake of disputing the transaction through their PayPal system and lost the $238. We were the proud owners of out of date casebooks which are worthless. Had we disputed the transaction through Visa, we would have gotten a full refund.
Live and learn and we once again got casebooks with obsolete dates and immediately disputed through Visa and got our money back. THEN Ebay BANNED US PERMANENTLY FROM THEIR SITE.
DO NOT SELL OR BUY USED LAW BOOKS FROM EBAY NO MATTER WHAT THE RATING OF THE PARTIES INVOLVED.
Amazon is vastly better to purchase or sell your used law books. We purchased 4 used law books from private individuals on the site and were very happy with each purchase. We sold 7 books with absolutely ZERO problems. Join Amazon and buy and sell your used law books without hassles. Here are some good links to Amazon.
