How it works?
Textbooks are very expensive, and the amount most stores pay you for a used book is just pennies on the dollar. It only makes sense to rent them!
With Chegg there are no hidden charges. The average rental price on Chegg offers significant savings compared to the publisher's suggested list price! Each book has a rental fee based on the length of the period required.
Chegg offers the following rental periods:
Semester: 125 days
Quarter: 85 days
60-Day rental
Rental prices may change from time to time depending on the marketplace. However, prices do not change once an order is placed.
