This Rental Agreement ("Agreement") is made between TextbookSavvy, Inc. ("Company") and the customer ("Renter") and governs the terms and conditions related to the rental of books and related items ("the Book").

By placing a rental order on our website, the Renter agrees to the following terms:

1. Rental Period

The rental period shall begin on the date the Book is marked as "Delivered" by the United States Postal Service ("USPS"), United Parcel Service ("UPS"), FedEx, or Dalsey, Hillblom and Lynn ("DHL"). The Renter agrees to return the Book on or before the end date of the rental period specified at the time of order or by our email order confirmation.

2. Late Fees

If the Renter fails to return the Book by the end of the rental period, a late fee of $1.50 per day will accrue on the Renter's account. These late fees will continue to accumulate daily until the Book is returned or reported as lost. Late fees will be charged to the payment method on file.

3. Loss, Theft, or Complete Demolition

In the event that the Book is lost, stolen, or completely demolished beyond repair, the Renter agrees to pay a reimbursement fee equal to 1.3 times the original rental price. This amount will be charged to the payment method on file.

4. Damage Penalties

• Severe Watermarks, Ink Marks, and Partial Damage: If the Book is returned with significant damages such as severe watermarks, ink stains, or any partial damage that impairs its future usability, the Renter agrees to pay a penalty of 33.3% of the original rental price.
• The determination of "severe damage" will be made at the sole discretion of TextbookSavvy, Inc.
