How to Sell Used Textbooks

Gather up all of your used textbooks. The best choice is at your local college bookstore. Go see them with your books and see how much they will give you to sell them back to them. Don't sell them yet however!

Go home and get online and search for places that buy used books. There are many of these sites so just use Google.

Type in your ISBN numbers that are on the back of each of your books. The websites will usually give you an instant quote that they will pay you if you sell the books to them.

Compare all the various offers from the websites and your local college bookstore.

The obvious step is the pick the one with the best offers. Of course you want the most money back that you can get.

You can also sell the books individually if every place has a best offer for only one book. However, this can be a hassle if you have many books that you are looking to sell.

Make sure you use a place that offers you pre-paid shipping if you are going to do it online. If you had to pay for your own shipping, the amount money that you would have received may drp heavily due to heavy books and shipping fees.
