This week, my family and I will be moving to an old house. We'll be housesitting my parents-in-law's house for a while as they spend some time in the US as green card holders. The house is about 25 years old and keeps things and stuff of all kind - kitchenware, antique furniture, clothes, and books... LOTSA books. Gathering dust in the library are textbooks previously used by my dad-in-law. Now my husband and I are thinking of selling them. Putting up my own small online bookshop would be nice, as it is a joy to sell textbooks online. But I'm afraid I wouldn't have the time for it. I'm a busy wife and mom. But then, the internet will always have a solution to a dilemma as simple as mine, right?
As it turns out, it is possible to sell books online without having to put up a webpage and deal with buyers individually. You can just sell your stuff to Sellbackyourbook.com, a company that buys used books. Once you agree to let them purchase your books, you get instant price quotes. You also get the benefit of fast payment via PayPal or check. What more, you can avail of the free shipping pre-postage label. You just pack all your books and ship them!
I hope to begin selling books come October. Most of the textbooks that we need to dispose of can still be used. There are textbooks on Humanities, Religious Studies, Economics, Management, Literature, ... oh, the list goes on. But the good news is, I no longer have to worry about setting a price for each book and how I'm gonna sell it.
