[00:02.00]NARRATOR: Listen to a conversation between a student and a bookstore employee.[00:08.18]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: Hi. Can I help you?[00:10.52]MALE STUDENT: Yeah, Mm, I need to sell back a textbook... [00:13.59]are you the person I speak to about that?[00:15.62]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: I am. But we can't buy textbooks back just yet because the bookstore's buyback period isn't until next Thursday.[00:22.94]MALE STUDENT: I thought it started this week.[00:24.71]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: It is only in the last week of the semester after classes are over.[00:28.13]MALE STUDENT: Oh, well, can you tell me if this book will be on the buyback list?[00:31.45]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: I can look, [00:32.34]but we are still putting the list together.[00:34.22] Professors have to tell us what books they'll definitely need again next semester, and the deadline for them to let us know isn't for a couple of days. [00:41.98]So the list I have here is not really complete. [00:45.22]Um...what class was the book for?[00:47.36]MALE STUDENT: Intro to economics, with, uh, Professor Murphy.
[00:51.33]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: Professor Murphy? OK. I checked earlier and I know she hasn't gotten back to us on that class yet. [00:57.76]So we don't know if she'll use the same book next time. [01:00.92]Usually if an updated edition of a textbook is available, professors will go for that one.[01:05.99]MALE STUDENT: Um...so if this book doesn't end up on the buyback list, what can I do?[01:10.48] I spent over a hundred dollars for it, and I want to get something back.[01:13.99]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: Well, if a professor didn't assign it for a class here, we could buy back for a whole seller who would distribute it for sale at another university bookstore.[01:22.99]MALE STUDENT: OK.[01:23.62]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: Anyway, if Professor Murphy does put it on the list, it is important that you come in as early as possible next Thursday. [01:30.10]There's only a limited number of books we would buy back.[01:32.89] Once we get the number of books we need for next semester, we would stop buying them.[01:37.05]MALE STUDENT: OK. So how much money will I get for the book?[01:39.98]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: Well, if it's on the buyback list, we'll pay fifty percent of what the new price was.[01:44.81] But that also depends on what condition the book is in, so it needs to be cleaned up as much as possible.[01:49.87]MALE STUDENT: Cleaned up?[01:50.69]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: Because used books show wear and tear—you know, water stains, scruffy covers, yellow highlighting ...[01:56.46]you really need to make sure there're no pencil marks on the book. [01:59.96]The price you can get for a text depends on the shape it's in.
[02:03.38]MALE STUDENT: You mean I have to erase all the pencil marks?[02:06.45]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: If you want the best price for it?[02:08.49]MALE STUDENT: And what if you decide the book is too beat-up and don't buy it back?[02:11.73]FEMALE BOOKSTORE EMPLOYEE: That does happen. [02:13.22]Hmm ...Well, one more thing you can try is to place an ad in the student newspaper to see if you can sell it directly to another student.
