Used Book Buyers

[rainbowbride617.livejournal.com]

Hi everyone! I'm looking for some advice for a place in the greater Boston area (the closer to Davis, the better) that buys used books. I've got bags and bags sitting here that need a good home. I love to sell them to a book store where I know they will get a good home. I've got a ton of hardcover fiction and non-fiction. Help is appreciated!

If you can find a local bookstore to take them, hooray! But if not, another possibility you may be interested in is http://paperbackswap.com - trade the books you don't want for books other people don't want. I've been gleefully turning several shelves of mysteries I'll never read again into shelves of books that I haven't read yet, but the books I haven't read yet are gaining on me.

If you have mostly hardcovers, it isn't quite as ideal, since all books are one credit, and hardcovers are a little less cheap to mail. But it's fun and pretty gratifying as far as knowing the books are going to good homes.
