You sell them to Amazon, or sell them on Amazon? I don't think I would have the patience to list and wait for them to sell though.

How do you determine your price in comparison to other sellers? How long does a book usually take to sell?

So, long story short - the easiest way i found earn extra cash was to sell used textbooks and other books online. However, I needed to find the cheapest product that produced the biggest bang for the book.

That location - The Goodwill.:datazz:

The Goodwill is one of my favorite stores just to look in. You never know what you find.
However, the trick is when you look for textbooks, school books and study guides - head to the good will. Use your mobile phone and download the Amazon Price App. With it, you can scan the bar code of the books and see how much they go on line for. The good will usually sells books for no more than $2 or $3 the MOST. Use the USPS flat rate shpping box that are free to deliver at your house.

Once you find your books and ensure that they are in good shape - you sell them on Amazon or Ebay. It's easy money and your guaranteed to make a profit on most books. The biggest profit I made was like 60, the least was like 5, but hey - a profit is a profit.:yeshrug:

It's funny - CAC's be seeing me with my phone scanning books and they be like :flabbynsick:... I be like :childplease: mind your business and keep it rolling:old:

I"m deployed right now - but when i get back - i'm getting waist deep in the game breh's

Usually I go into a Goodwill or Salvation Army with like $10, and sell the books I have and make 200 profit. Also, keep in mind that you want to use the cheapest shipping rate as possible to capitalize on your profit.

Don't know if this will help you breh's out - but also passing on my game to yall:smugdraper:

One last thing - don't fukk with novels - throw those in the bushes.

Get money and :eat: well breh's

I'm going to have to thank you for sharing this but at the same time it is best to eat with your mouth closed if you catch my drift. Getting this thread deleted would be in your best personal interests.

Yeah - it's really simple. Just try it once.

Ebay is okay too, but I prefer Amazon.

Yeah I actually set up the amazon store yesterday, and I brought some books at good will although I messed up cuz i wasn't pressing 'used' on the price check so I was getting the prices for new books so the books I brought weren't worth much, buts it's just a test anyways

Also I found out if you list them at half.com you can get it cross listed on eBay

Keep in mind - if they're used, and they still look new - and I mean legitimately look new, then by all means sell them as new. I wouldn't sell the book at whatever else is listing them. I usually undercut everyone by $5 or $10 depending on the market value of the books on Amazon, Ebay or whatever else you use.

Don't buy junk either - make sure you use that app.

:myman: My brother told me when he was in college he had a homie that would steal books from the book store and sell them. Those college books be like $100 a pop:whew:
lol, i have like 7 years worth of college books... barely used, and I don't even like highlighters.

This OP is a great side hustle, I was always too lazy.
