Used Book Request
If you are looking for a used copy of a book, you may utilize our no-cost, no-obligation "Used Book Request" service. Provide information about the book and your contact information by completing the "Book Information" and "Customer Information" forms below, then submit the forms by left-clicking on the "Send" button in the lower left-hand corner of the "Customer Information" form. You must provide the title and author of the book in the "Book Information" form and your name and e-mail address in the "Customer Information" form to be able to submit the forms.
By submitting a Used Book Request for a book, you are NOT ordering the book and you are NOT agreeing to buy the book should we obtain a copy. No information that you give us will ever be disclosed to any third party.
Please include any time limitation on your request in the "Comments" block of the "Book Information" form. For example, if you plan to visit Powells when you travel to Portland, Oregon at the end of this month, please limit your request by typing something like "won't need the book after the end of this month" in the "Comments" block.
Your request will be kept in our "Used Book Request" file for at least six (6) months. All used books that come into our shop during the course of used book exchange/purchasing are checked against our Used Book Request file. If we should obtain a copy of a book that you have requested, we would notify you (usually via e-mail) and give you a chance to purchase the book before we place it on our shelves for sale to the general public. We fill several dozen such requests each month.
