Selling old books

slothmeister · 16 Oct 2006 at 16:49

Hi guys, i'm after a little spare cash at the mo and have a load of text books lying round from the uni days. Do you know anywhere that i can sell them, other than the bay?

Seeing as they were £60 new, they must be at least with a couple of quid

Thanks.

If you take them to a bookdealer you will get next to nothing for them, I would stick an advert up in your local shop or on a Uni message board or Ebay.

best place to sell books is a huge online retailer that I cant name.. But they have a used section on every item they sell, which is numerous.
