Have you tried making money by selling your old books..

Every single book is precious for me. I don't want to sell them. I prefer to keep them and one day I will read them again. Or I will leave them for my child. I love China

how about shipping?

have sold a few books on Amazon, but probably had more immediate success with selling batches of them on ebay.

I have made like 10.00 or so selling to a used book site. Their banner is on my blog. The nice thing about them is that they send you a label for free shipping. They mostly take new releases though, and some textbooks. There are a number of books we have, that are good books, but they dont seem to be interested in them.

I've sold books in the past on eBay, Amazon and half.com. I don't think I've had any major success stories, but I did make a few bucks here and there.

I've sold almost all my textbooks that I used in university on taobao, a famouse B to B site in China. I haven't made a lot of money, but I'm happy, cos I've gained some friends.
