cant you just sell em back to the school?

If you bought them from a "school" bookstore, then you should be able to sell them back there.

That was always the easiest move when I was in college.

Yeah, but I was wondering if I'd get more money elsewhere.

Just go to your quad area and put up some 3x5's with your info and knock off a few bucks from the school store price. Usually if you sell them back to the school you get less than 50% for them. So this way you can make at least 75% back if you can sell them all.

FUCK BUYING BOOKS ON SCHOOL CAMPUS. I bought a book almost 90 bucks, only later to find that one of my classmates got the book for 4 Dollars LMAO!

yup...this is good advice. my school usually gave back only 20% of the retail price.

I'd just go with half.com.. you're gonna get a quick sale for just about the same price you will any of the other sites.. definitely dont sell it back to teh school though. they rip you off.

What about if you have books that are a good 5-6 years old, by now all schools require the latest editions.

just go to your local college and ask a few people where they sell their books at, at the end of the semester. you more than likely wont ask more than 4-6 people before you get an answer.

because most people sell their books.

most colleges have a place real close by (the closer, the better) that buys books from you and sells them as well.

in most cases youll get half of what your books worth even less if its in bad conidition

that same place actually sets up shop during the last few weeks of a semester and buys books out on the quad..i dunno how they do it out there though, but thats how it is here.
