Store Description

Seit �ber 30 Jahren handeln wir mit B�chern. Begonnen hat alles als kleiner Fachbuchhandel in Berlin. Heute sind wir spezialisiert auf den An- und Verkauf gebrauchter B�cher. Noch immer liegt unser Fokus dabei auf den Kategorien: Fachbuch und englischsprachige Literatur. Hinzu kommen B�cher aus allen anderen Genres, wie Belletristik, Biografien oder Kinderb�cher. Unser oberstes Ziel ist dabei die Weiterverwendung von Dingen und die Schonung von Ressourcen. Neben dem Ankauf von privaten B�chern oder Haushaltsaufl�sungen kaufen wir bundesweit komplette Bibliotheken und Buchbest�nde von Institutionen auf, um diese nachhaltig ein weiteres Mal auf den Markt zu bringen. Parallel dazu bietet Buchpark die M�glichkeit, gro�e Mengen einzulagern. Ganze Bibliotheken und umfangreiche Buchbest�nde werden von uns professionell auf Qualit�tsmerkmale hin untersucht und sorgf�ltig f�r den Onlinehandel aufbereitet. Wir schenken B�chern ein zweites Leben.
