  • I think e-bay is the best place to buy books for a great prize
  • There is a long thread here about selling books etc on Amazon
  • The free book selling web site is really cool
    But has your daughter also thought about advertising her book around the college?!
    Sell direct to the year below (if its a text book) - they dont get an inflated price because of postage costs, you dont have to pay fees or risk losing out on money cus of postage - everybody wins!
    nb. I sell loads of books on amazon - I usually pop down to the post office and weigh them first if they are really heavy to check its worth my while and estimate a price!
    I've made my debts bite-size too depressing to look at all at once so am handling them one at a time - first up Graduate Loan £1720 paid off! only £280 to go!!!
    Money to raise for tuition fees: £3000
    When you get to the end of your rope, tie a knot and hang on!!

    Yep, chances are your uni department might organise a book sale at the start of term (if not, and you know several people wanting to sell books, then why not group together to organise one?) Or alternatively they might have a small ads board (or an online version) somewhere, where you can put up a notice... or leave one lying around a lecture theatre before the year below have a lecture, or something. Set texts especially should be easy to sell for near enough the price you paid for them.
    student100 hasn't been a student since 2007...
