Used bookstores that buy books

[guxx.livejournal.com]

I like McIntyre and Moore's but do they buy books of a non-scholar nature? I have about 50 books of various subjects (computer programming, cyberculture, travel, sociology, etc) and short of carting the books to different bookstores, are there certain places in the general area I can drive to and see if they'll buy the books whether for cash or store credit?

Thanks.

They might be interested - certainly I've seen those kinds of books there - but instead of hauling the books around, give them a call first and see if what you have is something they're likely to be interested in. When I had a bunch of books to get rid of a couple years ago, I called around, and ended up selling some of them to the Harvard Book Store. While I had a pile of non-fiction, it wasn't quite right for McIntyre and Moore.
