Subject: Want to sell your college books for more money or buy books for cheap?

Hey everyone! I just thought that I would say that people are encouraged to post books they have for sale on this message board. Just list your price, and someone will get back to you on buying it. If you need help setting your price, try this simple method of figuring out the price:

Take markup the book by %50 of the sell back price you would get from University or Phollets. For example, Calculus: Early Transcendentals (4th edition), by James Stewart (1999) can be sold back for 50 dollars to both bookstores, but what do they go and do, sell it for 101 dollars back to the consumer. So, if you take 50 * 1.5 you will get 75 dollars, which is more money for you, less money for the purchaser, and no money for fucking corporate America. So please, use this message board to talk about selling books.

If you use this service instead of University or Phollets, then you will not only be ripping off the man, but selling a book cheaper to someone who really needs that book.
