selling books

[robinsnest]

So I have some used books, some college text books from last semester, some costume books I have duplicates of, anyone have experience selling used books online? I've bought tons but never sold. Should I use half.com, Barnes and noble or Amazon?

Thanks!

I just saw your comment on jenthompson's LJ, and wandered over because I liked your icon. And I can actually respond to this request, so here I am, commenting! :) I've sold a lot of books, mostly textbooks, and prefer to use half.com. You can use your ebay account, and it's a single page for the ISBN. Usually I'm just trying to get back some money, not exactly what I paid, and I list them for just a little bit less than the current lowest price in the same condition. They usually sell pretty darn fast! Oh, and don't hold on to textbooks for more than a semester; you want to sell them before a new edition comes out.

why thank you! That's just the kind of feedback I was hoping to find. I have text books from last semester and a few costume duplicates. My Icon is a tintype I had taken at a reenactment last fall. Which was great fun!

Oh, good! Then I'm glad I commented. Good luck on your selling; and the tintype looks great. Good job!
