Buy My School Books ((BETTER))



If you're smart about how you buy your textbooks (or even rent your textbooks), and you make it a focus to resell your textbooks after class - you might not find yourself as hard up as you'd have thought.




buy my school books



Cons: If you sell your books to a bookstore, don't expect to turn a profit. College bookstores need to make money reselling the books they buy from you. That encourages them to pay you as little as possible.


Pros: Students are willing to spend more money on textbooks when they really need them. By renting your textbooks during the semester, you can get money from students who didn't plan ahead. You also have the opportunity to make more cash by renting your books several times.


Cons: There's no guarantee that you will get your books back. Even honest people might simply forget to return them when they're done. That means you'll have to waste time finding them.


AbeBooks is a great place to resell your textbooks, but it does require a bit more work than some of the other places on this list. You setup your own shop, ship your own products, and basically run your own store. However, they do have great prices as a result.


Amazon is the market leader in textbooks and one of the largest online marketplaces in the world. When it comes to reselling textbooks, Amazon makes it incredibly easy. All you have to do it enter the ISBN number, and you can quickly list your textbook. You do have to ship out your own book when it sells.


I think a lot of people forget about Barnes and Noble being online, not just a store, but they have a huge website and a great textbook resell program. They also make the process of reselling your textbooks easy, by simply having you enter your book's ISBN number, accepting their offer, and sending in your books.


BookByte focuses a lot of its effort on textbook buyback, and they make the process easy. You simply enter your book information, accept the offer, and send back your books. They offer free shipping back on any textbook valued at $10 or more.


BooksRun allows you to sell both your textbooks and eBooks on their website. This is one of the only companies we've seen that facilitates eBook sales. Similar to the other companies, you simply enter you book information, accept the offer, send it in, and get paid.


CampusBooks is a search engine to help you find the best places to resell your books. However, they also help you streamline the process. You search their site, print the label, and then get paid. Most of the companies they search offer free shipping labels as well.


Just like it sounds, this site lets you easily get cash for your books. A little dated, but still fully functional - the website allows you to enter your book information, get a quote, and get paid via check or PayPal.


Chegg is one of the oldest online textbook companies, and they allow you to sell your textbooks back just like the other companies on this list. You get a quote, ship it back for free, and get paid. Chegg uses UPS, which means you can also drop your box off at a UPS store to save time and effort.


Craiglist isn't necessarily known for reselling books, but it can be an easy way to do it, especially if you want to connect locally with someone. There aren't a lot of tools here to help, but you can simply make a listing and see if anyone buys it.


You might not think about Decluttr as a way to sell your own textbooks, but it can work great in many cases. Just like you would normally do, you can enter the ISBN or scan the book in your app, then send your books in. Quick and easy!


eBay is the best auction site to sell your textbooks. This has the potential to get you top dollar, but on the flip side, there is more work involved in reselling your books here. You have to take pictures, but the listing together, and wait the 7 days plus payment time.


Knetbooks is more well known for textbook rental, but they also have a textbook resell option. One of the factors that distinguishes them is that they have a direct deposit option that allows you to get paid right into your bank account.


Student2Student is a marketplace designed to connect students on campus to resell and buy textbooks. Instead of searching and shipping, you can create a listing on your campus, accept an offer, and then meet the buyer at your school.


ValoreBooks advertises that it can help you get the most cash for your used textbooks. Like most of the other options, you simply enter your ISBN number, get a quote, and ship the textbook back to them. They can then pay you by check or PayPal.


The App Store and Apple Books both feature thousands of apps and books for your organization. Apple School Manager and your mobile device management (MDM) solution work together so your organization can buy content in volume, assign them to devices or users, and then install and update them wirelessly, even if the App Store is disabled. For more information, see the table below.


As soon as possible, buy any apps or books required for your initial deployment. Both paid and free content can be acquired using Apple School Manager. To learn about purchasing content, see Select and purchase content in the Apple School Manager User Guide and see the video Purchasing content.


As a high school librarian, I want to help students read as much as they can, however they prefer. Yet by limiting access and setting prohibitive prices, publishing companies make it extremely difficult to serve students who would rather read an e-book.


In response to predatory pricing, librarians and school librarians are buying fewer and fewer e-books or deciding not to purchase them at all. Recently, a librarian boycott of e-books took place as MacMillan, a major e-book publisher, decided to limit e-books in libraries even further by only allowing them to purchase one copy for the first two months of a published book. Only one patron can read the e-book at a time, so many libraries like to buy multiple copies for their users. MacMillan is forcing customers to buy the e-books from the company rather than obtaining them from the library.


Now, I work at a well-funded school district with a healthy library budget. Although my co-librarian and I buy some e-books as they do circulate, we do so very sparingly as we know they will be eating up our funds much more than the print copies we purchase. 041b061a72
