Easy & quick, sell them back to the bookstore she bought them from. If you want more, go in and see what the used books (same ones) are selling for. Then, post a ad on one of the many bulletin boards on campus for something under bookstore price. You'll still sell them quick.
Students would rather pay used prices as new, anyday!

She missed the sell back cut off date.
I'll just list them on ebay and if they don't sell, she can take them to school with her next time she's home. Always lots of freshman coming in every year.
Someone posted here that they were looking for a place to BUY used books on the internet cheap. That's why I had the idea I could SELL them too.

I've used bookfinder.com and addall.com to find textbooks for my wife. Even with priority shipping I can save a bundle. Some of these textbooks are very expensive by my standards. I don't need a calculator to figure which to purchase when the prices are $200 vs $20.

Thanks guys! Appreciate it. I'm already registered with half.com, but will look into the other two sites as well.
Uaru, tell me about it. She gets a $300 book allowance from her scholarship. That bought 2 books this week. She has 3 more to go and can't buy them yet. Last year she had to buy workbooks for one of her courses. It remained unused. She's a little more leary this year and waits til she actually needs the book.
