Discount, used books and more at Kraket

How much discount do I get on my textbooks if I am a member of Kraket?

Discount on Dutch language textbooks

Before a period begins, you will receive a 10 percent discount on Dutch-language titles when ordering online via Kraket. This has to do with Dutch legislation.

The latter also applies to purchases at the VU Bookstore as Kraketmember.
