About Cash Converters

Cash Converters is a unique and exciting international retail concept. What began in Perth Australia in 1984 is today a dynamic international franchise group with over 500 stores worldwide. Cash Converters specializes in the buying and selling of quality second-hand goods - jewelry, TVs, stereos, tools, electrical goods, etc. Bright, well-merchandised stores with trained, uniformed staff service the customers who receive cash for their goods when they sell and a 30-day warranty on products when they buy. People have been trading goods for hundreds and hundreds of years. The primal instinct to exchange one thing for something else probably pre-dates written history. It's an instinct that drives bargain hunters to garage sales and auction lovers to on-line sites.
The desire to strike a deal, to barter or to think you have obtained something for virtually nothing is the reason Cash Converters came into existence.

About Beat The Bookstore

When our first store opened, it created a wild excitement amongst students as they flooded our store. They sold their used books to us and bought new ones and on their way out, they took plenty of our business cards and distributed around the campus.

Professors went ahead to inform students about our cheap book sales, parking shuttle drivers did their bit over the PA system, the campus help desk directed the students to us and passed out our business cards. Even the employees of the campus bookstore came in to buy from us and sell their textbooks as well.

 
Beat the Bookstore Franchise opportunities are now available in 30 states and increasing quickly. Obviously, there can only be one Beat The Bookstore at any college or university. So, if you are interested in liberating the campus near you, then contact us today!
