I already buy books from ebay. Are there any other places online to buy mint condition used books?
The very best place if http://www.abe.com
ABE is a network of bookshops in the UK, USA and Canada. They offer new, used, remaindered, out-of-print, antiques and more. You can find textbooks, first editions, signed copies, etc. The customer service is outstanding.
These are the small booksellers that Amazon and Barnes and Noble are running out of business. Support the booksellers of ABE when you can.
I have a nice used bookstore and my books are priced half price which is the standard rate for used bookstores. My books are in excellent condition. Do you think that half price is asking too much? What do you pay? If you own a used bookstore, what do you charge? Are customer’s not buying your nice, half priced books because they think they are too high? I would appreciate your comments.
i have only been in a used book store once, and i cant say for all the books but prices i was looking at were between £1 – £3 for the more known books i.e. chocolat half price isnt a bad price to charge for books, just cant have half price across the whole range as some are so common you can get them loads cheaper elsewhere and some are uncommon so you could pay alot more else where.
I generally buy my used books from play.com as i can find lots of ones i like for £2 free p&p
This link was to the thread about the authors house. http://www.abovetopsecret.com/forum/thread445686/pg1 Which was a very interesting thread because it was walking you through the process that took place, up until his house was demolished. Luckily, because of these good people, http://cgi.rumormillnews.com/cgi-bin/forum.cgi?noframes;read=12558 it can be proven that the thread existed, because if they had not copied it, most people wouldnt know that it did. Now, on the other hand, this alone, since the rest of the thread is gone, might make one wonder if what he said about his house was made up. I mean where is the proof, anybody could say these things, and this is where it gets good. I copy and paste links to research when I run out of time and I found one of the links in my saved files. http://www.freewebs.com/paperwork/ I wish I had the others, because it had some really good information, but this one shows how he complied and got the proper permits. Then shows how they reneged on what they said after he had spent a large sum of money to comply. And it shows a picture of his car window with the date 13 on it, when it was towed, like he said, coinciding with the topic as read by clicking on the book cover in this link. http://www.amazon.com/World-Secrets-Omega-Project-Codes/dp/0978899709 Now, I will tell you another strange thing, you cant buy his books in stores, believe me, I tried. The sales rank on Amazon when I bought this book was around 1,000 in ranking. So, if you are unfamiliar with this, that is the top 1000 of all books in the world sold by them. When I went to Barnes $ Noble to try and get OLD WORLD SECRETS THE OMEGA PROJECT CODES, the clerk said, (I dont know why we dont carry this book, we get more requests for it than over half the books we carry). It is one of the only books in existence that sells for more used than it does new, look it up if you think I am exaggerating. In Europe, it is selling for around 100 EURO, which is about $150 USD. On the books website, $30.00 for both, free shipping to anywhere in the world. http://www.oldworldsecretcodes.zoomshare.com/ or http://www.newworldbible.zoomshare.com/ it is crazy. The reason why it is so high in Europe, at least what I have heard is that when the second book came out, they quit selling it through Amazon there. Which I believe could very well be true due to the fact that this is also when the threads were pulled from ATS and his house was seized and demolished.

I want to sell my old text books and buy cheap used or new textbooks. I want the best site that sells cheap books and text books. I also want a site where I can sell my used textbooks to them for a really good price. If the site allows me to rent textbooks, that is even better.
Ecampus is the best site online to buy textbooks from and also the best place to sell. It is the largest online textbook store with thousands of textbooks available at discount prices.
They buyback used textbooks and also provides the rental service.

I need to buy school books and I have an amazon gift card, can i buy used books with this gift card?
Yes you can use your gift card to buy used books. When you checkout just put your gift card number in and it will use the card.
I want to buy a bunch of classic board games but don’t feel like paying retail since its the same new or used. I am also looking for interesting used thrift (non-clothing and non-household) stores to buy cheap books, games, toys, etc. Basically one of those stores you can spend hours in, buy interesting stuff and wont break the bank.
Any recommendations?
Half Price books
Thrift Town
Uncommon Objects
Goodwill
I did a cull of books a few months back. Charity shops only want popular fiction – which I don’t have. The used book shop cherry picked the rest. I’m left with a box of rubbish, essentially. I have put the ratty paperbacks with really tiny print and thin yellowed pages into the bin, which I hated doing. But what about the rest?
The county jail inmates will devour anything in print, I promise.

1) 50% off
2) You could receive more for books that are specialized and in smaller supply.
