Best place to sell textbook - Half.com or Amazon.com?

[Hooobi]

I'm trying to figure out where the best place is to sell a couple of extra textbooks I have. They're brand new & I want to make sure I can get a decent price for them since they normally cost around $85 each.

I've never sold stuff outside of here & ebay so I was hoping to get some feedback on this.

I've sold a lot of textbooks on half.com. I had good experience there so I recommend it

Does it work the same as ebay where you have a time limit & there's a fee to put up you books & then they take a % ?

 

[bigrash]

No, there's no time limit. There is a fee though once you sell your book

 

[Hooobi]

Any idea what that flat fee reimbursement for shipping means? Do they give you a set amount back to defray the cost of shipping?

Yes, they compensate you partially for shipping. It's based on the type of book: paperback or hardbound.

And don't sell to your college bookstore. Deny them the pleasure of giving you sh!t on buyback.
