pro31lady Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 How do you choose the price you are willing to sell your used books for? I want to be fair to the buyer and give them a reason to buy used- but if the book has been read once and is in like new condition - what is a fair price to offer? I know that if money was not an option, I would love to be able to give my books away - but I need to sell books in order to buy others. I used to sell on ebay - but my starting price was always guess work. How do you come up with the price you ask? Lori Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
heart'sjoy Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 ONe recent thread was about who buys used/ new? Many were listing which curriculum/ books they would buy used = high demand. These items might easily go for 75% or Rainbow REsource price seller pay shipping. Many other items, although new, might not be in high demand, and the shipping and multiple transactions for a buyer trying to collect multiple pieces are often not worth the headache. These items are hard to sell and have to be priced accordingly. 50% of Rainbow Resource resource buyer pay shipping. If I needed a better return, I'd try ebay.

momofsbandeg Posted March 13, 2012 Share Posted March 13, 2012 between 50% to 60% of the original price if they are in really good condition. I try to think of what price I would consider fair when I purchase used items. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
