Selling Books online? Best Place?

skellington · 26 November 2019 at 12:03PM

I hope I have the correct forum here, but I am just getting some ideas on selling books online?

We have various books, of all sizes and contents, and would like a clear out. Some of these are brand new.

I've never done this before, but did download the Ziffit, and the MusicMagpie apps to scan to see what they would take. We probably have around 40-50.

Ziffit would only take around 7? the same with MusicMagpie..

Does anyone have any suggestions on the best way of getting rid of these for some cash? if not they will have to go to a local charity shop i guess. But is there something new out there, that collect and pay for books, a little like they do for CD's?

thanks for any help

It really depends on the genre of the book.

Have you checked to see their value ?

Also, are they 'new' books I.e with a barcode or are they antiquarian.

You can sell books on Amazon....but you must weigh them to check postage as this can be so high that it defeats the object.

Also Amazon will take a fee.

Hope this helps in a small way.
