  1. sell em on ebay, amazon or half.com in lots or individually.  you could also probably donate them to the library or something.


  2. Sweet, I say the best thing to do is either hold a personal booksale in your neighborhood to sale some of them and try and post some of them on ebay too. Hopefully they go quickly that way. Even ask some friends if they are interested and see if they are willing to take a few off your hands. Or if you have a half price bookstore or another book place that lets you sell books you could do that too.

  3. Try a garage sale.  If you're not able to sell all of them, try donating them to a library.  Tax write-offs can be procured by donating books to the library.  Good luck.

  4. amazon.

    ebay.

    sell 'em.

  5. You could sell them in 10 0r 20 book lot  groups over the internet or contact a used book store to see if they will buy them, or you could give them away to a charity shop.  

  6. Either try your own book sale or donate them to a library, senior center or ask around if anyone knows of anyone who likes to read and see if they'd want some of them. A lot of seniors or people who are ill and don't or can't get out to a bookstore or library may want them.

    It's hard to sell them on places like Amazon, E-bay or Half.com because there seems to be a lot of books flooding the market these days, especially romance. You'd end up paying more in fees for doing it that way.

  7. My city has a few used bookstores that will either give you cash for them or book exchange for them.

      You give them your books and they give you credit.  You can buy cd's, dvd's, other books, playstation games, etc......


  8. Donate them. Don't ask for money, just give them to people. Books are treasures that everyone should be able to enjoy; even people who can't pay for them. Donate some to a shelter. Bring others to a few libraries. Leave a couple on tables in public places with a sticky note that says, "Take me home and enjoy." Simple things like that make people's day, and it also helps you clean out your bookshelves.

  9. I don't think that you could sell too many of them on ebay etc as romances are basically a dime a dozen because so many of them

    are sold each month. However if you were really interested in making some money you could check out the names of the authors. You could have some out of print book that some people would literally

    sell their kids for. I think there is an area of ebay you can go into that people will post what they want instead of what they are selling and you could tell from there. Otherwise I would try donating them to a seniors home because a lot of elderly people like them or donate them to your local library. they stock them in the shelves if they are in good condition and otherwise they will sell them to help buy new books for the library.
