I actually got a check from Cash4books.net last week. It was for $7, but it was off of a referral. Apparently, someone found the link (I’m assuming through this site) and sold some books to them.
I have sold books to them before. I’ll admit that it’s hard to find books to sell to them as they are very selective, but it’s easier than waiting seven days on eBay and hoping someone buys something. You can also usually use eBay as a backup if necessary.
Selling books online is somewhat difficult, at least for cash. This has also proven difficult in real life, as many used bookstores will only give credit. Even then, there’s no promise that they’ll want any of your books.
Movies and CDs aren’t much easier. Some sites and stores will take them, but often will only offer 50¢ each. If you’re selling at a store, it’s often not worth the gas money. Even if you sell them online, it may not be worth going to the nearest mailbox.
At this point, I’m hoping that you’re not expecting a solution. I’m actually looking for suggestions, myself. I don’t know that there is one. After all, it’s supply and demand. I used half.com for a while and at best, would sell one or two books per day and that was with an inventory of thousands of items. If anyone knows of a site that buys lots of stuff or a place near Miami that’s worth visiting, I’d be interested in knowing about it.
