Sell Your Books Online

Monday June 2, 2008
As if Powell's wasn't already one of the coolest stores ever, now you can sell your used books without first lugging them all to the store. It's a convenient if you don't live nearby or simply don't have the time to get to the store. Keep in mind, however, that you'll still need to mail the books to Powell's (but they'll pay for the shipping!)

Find out more about how to sell your books to Powell's online.

Check out the other reasons to love Powells' Books.

I’m a big proponent of selling your books online but not in the same way that you are. I recommend NEVER being satisfied for the measly amount of money that you will get from places like Powell’s. They are simply going to take your book, mark it up and sell it again. You might as well just mark it up yourself and sell it on places like Amazon or eBay. I have a blog dedicated to showing people how to do this on their own and have gotten some very good feedback! Come check it out if you’d like.
