<p>Has anyone here sold their textbooks on Amazon? I'm interested in selling mine on there, however I was wondering what people whom have used it thought of the service. On top of that, I was wondering how exactly does one get paid? I have an account through Amazon with my debit card saved. Does the money transfer into my debit card account?</p>
<p>Thanks,

<p>I use Amazon to buy and sell textbooks a few times a semester. Never had a problem with them or their sellers, and the prices are usually competitive. They ask for your checking account number, and deposit the money into your account, minus their commission. I think they do it monthly, so sometimes you have to wait awhile and other times it is right away.</p>
<p>Note: I'd wait until August to sell the books as you'll get a lot more money. (supply and demand because of the fall semester)</p>
<p>yea, amazon books are pretty cheap compared to the school bookstore.</p>
<p>i like selling mine on their because you get more than what the bookstore offers you.</p>
<p>but when buying on their, sometimes shipping takes awhile.</p>
<p>what is their commission?</p>
<p>Also, I bought a 100.00 textbook never used it. it came with 2 CD's I did open then to "check 'em out" would higher price be "ok" to charge??</p>
<p>Wabash, it would be okay to charge a higher price, but the book might not sell.</p>
<p>I've had mostly good experiences with selling, but I would advise everybody to spend the extra $0.60 on USPS Delivery Confirmation when mailing books -- if a buyer claims not to have received a book and you have a USPS Delivery Confirmation number indicating that you mailed it, Amazon will absorb the cost and you won't have to refund the money.</p>
<p>yeah def do it when schools start up again. Commission was like 7-10 dollars when I sold a 60 dollar textbook, u do the math (I think it was anyhow)</p>
<p>Selling textbooks @ half.com works too</p>
