What is a PayPal E-mail?
This is the e-mail you have associated with a PayPal account. Providing this will allow buyers to purchase your book quickly and efficiently, without you having to meet them or wait for a cheque or money order.
When will you contact me via my telephone, fax, or mailing address?
Hopefully, never. But we do ask for this information to get a perspective of our users. The only way we contact users is via e-mail as it is safe, secure, and unobtrusive.
Textbooks
Why can I not remove my sold textbooks from the listings?
It helps us out by showing the usage of the website. We keep an eye on sold and active textbooks, as well as outdated textbooks and remove/prune these when necessary.
How do I add a cover image of my textbook to the website?
At the present time you can't. We are working on a simple, quick and efficient way of allowing our users upload cover images to the website. For now, contact support and we can go from there to get your image online.
Website
Is the website suppose to look like this?
It really depends on what browser you are using. The two browsers we primarily used when creating UTexts was Internet Explorer 6 and Firefox 3. If you are using one of these two you should be safe, however any other browser should work just fine with UTexts.
How do I remove a textbook from my favorites?
The same way you added the textbook. Click on the textbook you wish to remove to look at the detailed information about it, and click "Remove from Favorites", which is under the cover image of the textbook.
My school is not in the list, how can I add it?
Visit us at support and leave a message stating what school you go to. We will then add it to the list in our next update. :-) Don't forget, you can still register as the school that you go to, is not required.
How can I help UTexts.ca?
