Closing Your AbeBooks Bookseller Account

You can close your AbeBooks Bookseller Account at any time. To do so, simply contact AbeBooks Customer Support with your request, including the date you would like the closure to take effect.

Please make note of the following:

• If you need a copy of your inventory, please download a file prior to the account closure. We do not store a backup of your inventory after the closure has completed.
• Be sure to process any outstanding orders or returns before the account closure completes.
• Do not set your account to Vacation status while waiting for the account closure to take effect. Doing so will delay the closure.
• Subscription fees will not be pro-rated or refunded if an account is closed mid-month.

Upon closure of your account, you will be able to sign on to AbeBooks to support our community of independent booksellers using the same email address and password you used for your bookseller account – we will simply change the status of your account to book buyer. All areas of our web site, except those exclusive to our Bookseller Community, will continue to be available to you. Your wants will still be listed on your buyer account, but if you have more than 500 you will not be able to add any more.
