First of all, we suggest you keep the discussions between students quite "formal" since Lexya is clearly not a dating site! When we share you the information of the person you are buying or selling your book with, be smart enough to distinguish Lexya from Tinder.
On the other hand, if you fall in love at first sight and a wedding takes place in the future, we hope to at least be invited. You can send us the announcement directly at our office at 226 rue St-Joseph Est in Quebec City! We guarantee you will put the party in the place.
Not a penny! What would be the point of saying that we want to leave you the most money in your pockets? So you can choose the price you want for your books and all the profit comes back to you.
In the details page of the book you want to buy:
Very important:
In the "Sell" section, you can find your book easily and you do not have to enter all the information in your book by hand. You determine the quality of your book according to four simple questions.
When you put a used book on sale, we suggest a price according to the quality of your book and our scholarly calculations. We also present you the value of the new book so that you have a better idea of your selling price. Then you have the freedom to choose the selling price you want!
When a student wants to buy your book, we will send you his information by email and \ or text, according to the preferences that you have determined in your Profile.
You will then be able to determine a place and a time of meeting to proceed with the transaction.
Books that meet one or more of the following conditions are not accepted:
A Lexya - Certified book is a unique alternative that you are offered on the Lexya platform of your association. This is a used book that we have in stock at our warehouse and we offer to buy at a low price.
The benefits of a Lexya - Certified book are:
It is therefore a perfect solution for those who do not want to pay the big price and who want to make the least effort possible! Not crazy anyway.
When we do not have an agreement with suppliers, we offer you the different prices that we have been able to get on the web. You will be redirected to the distributors website where you can make your purchase.
Our goal is that you always pay the cheapest possible!
You can check the status of your order directly from your Lexya account.
It usually takes 2 to 3 business days before the order information is displayed in your profile, in the "My Orders" section. If you still have not heard from us, you can write to us at: orders@lexya.co and we will follow up as soon as possible.
When it's a downloadable PDF file, you can access your digital book without an internet connection.
For the purchase of digital books, you proceed in the same way as for the new book. You do the transaction directly on the Lexya platform and we take care of placing the order with the different suppliers.
You will then receive a confirmation by e-mail with an access code to consult your book online *. When it comes to a PDF file, you can also download it directly from the My Orders tab on the Lexya platform.

Our mission is to always offer you the most competitive prices on the market, that's why we negotiate our own agreements with external suppliers in order to get you the best possible prices.
We also treat information from certain sources in order to "scan" the web and always show you the best possible price.
If you have any questions about our supplier agreements, write to us at support@lexya.co.
On your student portal or in your lesson plan, you can see the code of your course. You can always ask your student association directly for more information.
We had the audacity to create your personalized list of books associated with each of your courses. Thus, we are able to create a personalized list according to your route. It is therefore very important that you share with us in your Profile the courses to which you are registered.
We work with student associations and partner schools in order to always optimize the quality and reliability of the information that is suggested to you. It is updated daily at the beginning of the sessions as well as once a week during the less busy period.
On the other hand, if some teachers do not mention the compulsory books in the syllabus, we can not know if there is a mandatory book or not. Next to each book recommended on the platform, there is a small white flag where you can tell the book.
This function allows you to write directly to us if:
You can also tell us at books@lexya.co. We'll be eternally grateful!
Yes. We are unfortunately not perfect.
Sometimes the data we collect may deviate from the teacher's lesson plan. There is therefore room for maneuver. It is suggested that you wait for the first class to be certain that the book is mandatory and that the book suggested by LEXYA is correct. Most of the time, the book should be. If you ever think there is a change, write us at support@lexya.co. We will make the change and take a beer to your health!
For all prices displayed with "LEXYA" as a supplier, sales are final. If ever there is an error, breakage, defect or other problem we will try to help you as best we can. Write to us as soon as possible at support@lexya.co.
Of course!
The new books that you buy by LEXYA are all delivered directly to you. We work hard for one day to be able to deliver the used books directly to you too. We keep you informed about it. Let us know at support@lexya.co if it's something that interests you!
Since we work with different suppliers and their prices are different depending on the distance and the agreements they have with the distributor, we are not able to always have the same shipping price.
We work hard so that one day shipping is free on all your purchases!
If there is an error, break, defect or other problem and we have proof that the book has never been used, we will be able to help you without any problem. The request must be made as soon as possible after receiving the book. You have 72 hours after receiving the book to tell us about the breakage.
Write to us at support@lexya.co.
When you have made your request within 72 hours of receipt of the defective book, we will send you a shipping slip allowing you to return it to the right place. We will communicate the steps with you by email.
If you have not already done so, write us at support@lexya.co.
As mentioned above under the question "What is the return policy on the purchase of my books? Sales on the Lexya platform are final sales.
So you're responsible for the purchases you make on the LEXYA platform and you have to make sure it's the right book before you buy it. If you made that mistake, we suggest you put it on sale in used format, you can at least recover a good part of the amount you paid!
