We want to BUY your BOOKS!

Friends, we are so excited to announce a new BOOK BUY option for you!  We hope this provides an option for families who want their gently used children's books to have new homes, but not at the sad prices that big-box used bookstores are offering.  It also helps our little shoppe have access to more wonderful books for our customers and gives us the opportunity to provide an even greater selection and quantity of books for all of you!  

So, if you are local to the Dallas area, here are the things you need to know (and if you’re not local, don’t worry! Keep reading for info on how to also arrange a buy back with us!):

• We accept gently-used children's books that are consistent with the curated collection that we offer at Yellow House.  (If you're not sure what that includes, it's okay!  Bring them anyway, and we can tell you if they're on our list.  What this list does NOT include are any movie or TV character books, like Disney, Marvel, etc.)

• We can arrange pickup from you in the local area, or accept porch drop-off anytime.  Just email us at yellowhousestoryshoppe@gmail.com to arrange. We have had dozens and dozens of successful buybacks over the past two years, and it has worked perfectly! 

• We will also have periodic "buying days" at our shoppe location at Central Commons in Dallas! Those dates will always be shared via email, so be sure to subscribe. 

• We offer payment via Venmo or Paypal, and pay 25-30% of the used price we can sell your books for in our shoppe—PLUS you can receive an additional 10% back if you choose store credit.

• Please remember that we can only purchase those books which are consistent with the content, quality, and condition of the inventory we keep in stock at Yellow House.  For anything that does not meet those standards, you will have the choice to keep the remaining books, or we are happy to donate them on your behalf.

PLEASE NOTE: We have now successfully completed half a dozen buy-backs for families out of state, so don’t hesitate to contact us, if you have a collection to sell, but don’t live in our local area. We would still love to work with you! (And we cover shipping, for the right books!) 

Thank you for your excitement for us as we continue to develop a few of these dreams we've had for so long.  We look forward to working with you---and please share this with friends!  We love that children's books of all kinds will be lovingly recycled to other families who will love and treasure them, so thank you for being a part of making that happen.
