I'm wanting to sell my old textbooks online.

I have about 8 textbooks from old college classes that I'd rather just sell online just to be rid of them. I was looking at http://www.cash4books.net/ and was wondering if anyone had any experience with them, or maybe know of another website that might be better. I'd appreciate any help.

    How long ago did you buy the books?

    If they aren't from this semester (Fall 2009), chances are you're not going to be able to sell them. College professors are notorious for upgrading their book lists any time a new edition of a book is published.

    Yeah, if they are more than one edition off from the current edition, people will likely only give you around $5-$10. College students won't be interested at all.

    Are you still a student?

    I usually go through half.com. It's a streamlined system for sellers and buyers, and when you sell something they give you the sales stats on it so you can ask for the best price and still have a chance of selling.
