Middle & Upper Schoolers: Sell Back Your Textbooks

Starting Monday, May 11, Middle and Upper School students may sell their gently used textbooks back to textbook vendor BNC (formerly MBS Direct). Families that wish to sell back their books must ship them directly to BNC. BNC’s online buyback program allows families to view buyback prices for each previously purchased book and select which ones to sell back—there’s even an option to sell books not purchased from BNC. Families then print prepaid shipping labels, pack and ship the books at UPS or another shipping source, and receive payment via PayPal or check in two to three weeks.

If you purchased this year’s books via BNC, simply visit bnck-12.com/paceacademy and follow these steps:

  • Click Let's Get Started.
  • Select View Materials under Parent/Guardian.
  • Enter this authentication code: Pace2025.
  • Ignore the block of red text that starts with "Sorry."
  • Click on Menu in the upper right.
  • Select Sell Your Textbooks.
  • Log in with the same login credentials you used when creating your account.  

For questions, contact BNC customer service.
