If I purchase books from you can I have them shipped to a young man in jail. It's the only way he can receive anything and they can't be mailed by me.

I think you can (you could call and ask). If you order online, I think you can have them shipped wherever you want. You may want to make sure he is able to get them. Depending on the place he is, there are a variety of rules regarding what an inmate can get.

i know from experience that the only way i could get books or magazines etc were if they were shipped directly from the publisher, and half price books is not a publisher. my family could not utilize "amazon marketplace", as those books could come from anywhere.. had to be directly shipped from an amazon facility or barnes and nobles etc. hope that helps.

Ask Google to call half price books in the location where your at or get the phone number and ask them.
