One of the best places I have found to purchase textbooks is Uloop (http://www.uloop.com/) — They connect students with other students so all transactions are local, which means you don’t have to worry about shipping anything. Also, unlike Amazon & eBay they don’t take a cut. This means books are cheaper (buyer) as well as more profitable (seller).

Selling used books on net has always remained a question with a big confusion for me….i went through the ratings of different sites above and figured out that http://www.a1books.co.in, a US based Indian online book market’s name has not been mentioned.

about 2 months back I sold my “Advanced Architecture” book which was in pretty good condition and I got the price I wanted for it….I just couriered it to them.

Happy selling guys….go beyond the amazon thing and try the new players…they are giving out there best to beat the competition….take the advantage…

Another new site to check out is http://www.mynexttext.com. It is a website that allows students to buy and sell used textbooks to each other on their own campus! Plus it’s completely free!

You can actually make pretty good money selling books. The biggest hurdle is finding good ones to sell, and not buying it before you know what it is worth.

I have made (warning, self advertisement, but free) a mobile website that should work on any web enabled phone, that lets you find a book by isbn, title or author, and returns the amazon sales rank as well as the lowest prices from a number of vendors. The mobile site is:

http://scout.bookspy.net

and the main site is:

http://www.bookspy.net

The service is free (for now).Hopefully someone will find this useful!
