BookLeey RENTAL AGREEMENT

When you purchase a new or used book from BookLeey, your credit/debit card will be charged for the purchase price of the book plus applicable tax and shipping. When you receive your book from BookLeey, the book becomes your property.

BookLeey offers a large number of products and it is always possible that, despite our best efforts, some of the products listed on the Site may be unavailable from time to time. Since we have multiple supply sources and are constantly updating our inventory, our pricing may change upon checkout. Because of this, prices and availability of products on the Site are subject to change without notice. Please be sure to confirm the price stated at checkout – that is the price you will be charged. Products may rent quickly and therefore there may be a change in the product’s availability from the time the product has been placed in a “cart” but before an order has been submitted. Similarly, you should understand that the pricing of products is dynamic and constantly changing based on many factors including product demand and availability, such that there may be instances where you are able to place a product in your “cart”, but upon submitting your order for processing, the pricing for such product may have changed. You agree that you are solely responsible for ensuring that any applicable pricing listed with respect to products in your order is acceptable to you immediately prior to submission of an order for processing. Upon submission of the order, you are solely responsible for all costs, charges and fees resulting therefrom. On rare occasions, you may receive notice that an item listed on your order receipt has become out of stock. You agree that we may rescind our acceptance and we may cancel any product(s) in your order without penalty if we are unable to ship the product you ordered due to unavailability.

Return your books by the last day of your rental period. All items that originally came with the book, such as, CDs, DVDs, access codes, inserts, workbooks, study guides, supplements etc., must be returned with the book. Please note that our website will be down occasionally for regular maintenance during off-peak hours. We try to keep downtime as short and infrequent as possible, but it is always best to submit your return rental request couple of days before you plan on returning back your books. BookLeey is not responsible for books that are returned late due to Site maintenance.

Your rental begins on the date your book is ordered, based on your tracking number, and must be returned by the last day of your rental period. Otherwise, we assume you are extending your rental. You will be charged accordingly.

If your book is not returned by the end of your initial rental period, and you have not otherwise extended your rental period, you will automatically be charged a late fee on a daily basis and will be deducted from your deposit amount. However to provide a better Renting experience BookLeey provides an additional 7 days as a grace period No late fee will be charged if you return the textbook within the grace period. If you have submitted the return rental request within grace period and if there is a delay from our side to pick the book from your address, in this case no late fee will be charged.

You have the option of buying out your rental. If you want to buy out your rental, you will be charged the purchase (new) price of the book plus any applicable sales tax, minus what you’ve already paid to rent the book, including any rental extensions (the “buyout price”).
To buy a book you are renting, please contact our customer support team via email or directly calling us on our support number.

If you wish to keep your rental past its due date, you can extend it by contacting our customer support team via email or directly calling us on our support number.

During your rental period, all books remain the exclusive property of BookLeey. Your acceptance of the book and paying rental fees entitles you only to limited use of BookLeey’s property for a specified amount of time and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. At the end of the rental period, you have no further right to use/possess the book.

During the rental period you are deemed to be solely responsible for the rented book, and you are responsible if it is damaged, lost or stolen (whether or not caused by you). If you do not return the book at the end of your rental period, the Maximum Retail Price after applying any discounts (if available) will be charged from your BookLeey deposit amount.

BookLeey guarantees that our books will arrive to you in good condition. If you receive a book that is damaged or incorrect, you must notify Customer Service within 7 days of when it is ordered. Once you do, BookLeey guarantee gives you the option of choosing between getting a replacement book sent at no extra cost, and returning the book for a full refund. Books purchased through the BookLeey.com are sold strictly on an "as-is" basis and are not subject to return or refund.
If you opt for a replacement, BookLeey will email you a confirmation to return the damaged or incorrect book. At the same time, the rental period of the original book will be set to 30 days to allow adequate time for you to return the book; however, to avoid being charged for keeping the original book, submit the return rental request for the damaged/incorrect book no later than the book's due date. If the book isn't returned by its due date, late fee charges may be applied.

(If you received a damaged book, please contact BookLeey Customer Support within 21 days of your order date. See the Damaged section above for more information.)
Books are required to be kept in the same condition in which they are received (absent normal wear-and-tear). If a book is returned to us as damaged and rendered unusable, it will remain the property of BookLeey and you may be charged an amount up to the Maximum retail price for the book. You are responsible for damage caused during the rental period. For examples of like-new and damaged books and their corresponding damage fees, please refer to the descriptions below.
You agree that BookLeey’s evaluation of a book’s condition shall be final and binding.
Required Condition - No Damage Fee

The book has a firm cover with no noticeable damage. All pages must be intact (no creases, tears, or stains present). There can be minimal writing or highlighting, but no damage to the binding.

Unacceptable Condition - Damage Fee Applies

Minor Damage

There is light damage to the book's cover (markings on the inside or outside, or portions ripped off) or pages (medium to large creases, tears, stains, or liquid damage).

Major Damage (Maximum Retail Price)

The cover is noticeably damaged or missing. Pages are stained, missing, illegible, or otherwise warped. There is heavy writing and/or highlighting throughout the book. Any other condition that renders the book unusable, including exposure to chemicals, perfumes, cleaning agents, or tobacco, smoke etc. that causes any noticeable odour, will also result in a major damage fee.

In the event you incur a major damage fee and are charged the buyout price for the book you have the option to have the damaged book shipped back to you at your expense. You must contact Customer Service within twenty-one (21) calendar days of the day you are charged the major damage fee to arrange (and pay) for the damaged book to be shipped to you. If you do not provide BookLeey with shipping instructions and payment within this time, the damaged book will be considered permanently and irrevocably abandoned by you. Accordingly you will automatically forfeit any and all right, title or interest in the book. The abandoned book will then be donated or otherwise disposed of in a manner of BookLeey’s choosing without further notice or obligation to you.

Modest levels of writing and highlighting are allowed only with pencil. If a book is returned with a copious amount of writing or highlighting, as determined by BookLeey in its sole discretion, a damage fee may be charged (see above section).

We only rent books that can be reused; workbooks, study guides, laboratory manuals, periodicals, and other consumable materials are not rented. Furthermore, we do not guarantee that access codes/keys/cards, CDs, DVDs, workbooks, or any other type of supplemental material will come with your books, purchased or rented. If a book you rent or buy from BookLeey arrives with a supplement, you are allowed to use it at no extra cost. At the end of the rental, all supplemental material must be returned with the book rented.
