    Just thought I would revive this thread. I just sent off my second shipment to Sellbackyourbook.com. The books I get usually come from storage units I buy at auction.

    The first shipment I made was in May. I sent them 9 books and received $15.20. Today I just packed up a box of 16 books and will receive a check for $37.08.



    I had to go through 3 small plastic totes of books to find the 16 I could sell. But it took less than an hour, so that is pretty good money for the trouble. They pay the shipping. I also found a rare book that may be worth over $100. It has no ISBN even though it was published in 91. It was only given to secret service members. I could only find one copy for sale on Amazon and none on ebay. Pretty cool, but I'm not sure just yet how to sell that one.

    Had a yard sale yesterday and had some books there to sell for fifty cents a piece. Didn't sell a single one. I have started looking at books that other people sell at yard sales but it seems that most are too old (textbooks) to be worth anything.
