Where and when is the next sale?
The 2025 sale will be held March 12-16 at Stuart Country Day School, 1200 Stuart Road, Princeton, NJ. Opening Day tickets will go on sale starting at 6:00 p.m. on Sunday, January 12 EST. An email reminder will be sent to those who attended last year.
Where is your used book donation site? How can I reach you?
We collect books at 812 State Street/Route 206 in Princeton, almost across the street from the intersection with Herrontown Road. Please check our schedule on the Donations page before you come. Call 609-921-7479 for questions, assistance, and to discuss large donations. Please pack books into boxes no larger than 12″x12″x16″ and call ahead if you plan to bring more than twenty boxes per day.
How much are the books?
Children’s books start at $1. Most adult hardbacks are $4 with books of a greater value marked accordingly. Books in the rare book section, “Collectors Corner,” are priced at around 25%-30% of their online retail value at the time they were donated to us. Bargains are found in every category!
Are tickets required?
Yes, but only on the first day of the sale when the entrance fee is $32. All other days are free. Find details and purchase tickets on the Annual Sale page.
What forms of payment are accepted?
We accept cash, major credit cards, and checks with local photo ID. We add 3.5% to cover the cost of credit card payments. Avoid this fee by paying with cash (no ATM on site) or a local check with ID (driver’s license).
Is parking available?
Yes, Stuart Country Day School has free parking. Look for signs as you enter.
May I bring a cart onto the sale floor?
No, we are sorry but wheeled dollies, wagons, and shopping carts are not permitted. Only personal mobility devices such as walkers and wheelchairs are allowed in the sales areas. We will make an exception for baby carriages containing children.
Books in storage
Are carts available for loading cars?
Yes. We have a limited number of dollies and carts to lend buyers on a first-come, first-served basis. Just leave your driver’s license with a cashier as a deposit.
Are food and drinks available?
No. We are sorry that there is nowhere to buy refreshments at the sale, although there are water fountains. Please note that drinking and eating are not permitted in our sales rooms, including coffee.
Are there restrooms?
Yes.
