Selling old textbooks

I have some old textbooks I want to unload. Any good websites where I can list them for sale?

As some of you know, I'm moving soon. I have a few old textbooks I'd like to get rid of before I move. They're in good shape, but they are old - I went to college some time around the Bronze Age

so most of the texts in question have probably been through at least one reprint. Still, they might be useful to someone, and I could use the $, and I'd rather not have to schlep them yet again. So I figure that if I can sell them, great...

Try sites like Amazon.com and Half.com. They're probably your best bet.

half.com is a great website! I've sold a lot of books on there.

I have a LIBRARY of old textbooks that I could get rid of if I could find someone to buy them!

www.urshelf.com

UR Shelf was created by a few Pi Kappa Phi brothers at NJIT in Newark, NJ......(friends of mine...have to give them a little plug)

What's nice is that it finds books on your campus, so you don't have to pay shipping costs, you can just meet up with the person at your student center or something. If the book isn't available, UrShelf automatically searches other schools, and Amazon.com results.
