Should I do it at the official campus store, or one of the others ones?

list them on half.com and amazon marketplace


you'll have to wait to sell them until someone bites, but you'll end up getting more money

Well, I would kind of like the money soon. Especially since some of them are a couple of years old and might be due for a new edition in the near future.

^^ seconded. I sold a couple on half and got decent money for them.

Check on half and amazon to see what price your books are going for. Make sure to use the identical ISBN and condition. Then take your books to the local book stores and see what they offer you. Make your decision from there.

if they're a couple years old, then most likely there already has been a newer edition released

at this point you may be better off waiting until finals on some of them. If theyre old youll lose money on commission and shipping and could even end up in the red

There isn't a new edition yet, but I'm afraid there might be one soon.

ill do my good deed for the day....which ones are they? I can probably tell you if theyre changing

I think that you can sell them on bookbyte.com too

I always found Addam's Bookstore to give me the best prices, but usually only by like $5-$10.

since I'm bored and the first guy passed, anyone else have books they'd like me to look up?

I agree, plus lots of times book stores wont even sell the older versions.

I mean, unless you just need drug money, I'd wait and get more money out of an online sale personally. If it's for drugs though, I understand the rush to sell them and get money. You can always take them to a few places and see what they'll give you for the books and if they'll even take them. Considering they are a few years old though, the likelihood is low that they'll want most of them.
