Do you think this is legit?

I'm looking around for websites to sell back my textbooks and most of the ones I found would only give $3-$5 for this one book. Well, I found one site that would give $35 for the same book. The reviews on the site look legit and there are a lot of them but I'm not sure. 

Re: Do you think this is legit?

  • I'm just not sure how this is related to etiquette... But I sold mine back on Amazon, worked for me!

    Because clearly everything on this board is etiquette related........

    I use half.com.  It's an offset of ebay but you can also see what your exact book is being sold for recently too.

    <div>Which part are you referring to? Me asking how this has to do with etiquette... or that I sold mine on amazon?</div>

  • Probably that you were asking how it refers to etiquette. If you go look at the rest of the threads, they don't all have to do with E.

  • Anything goes I suppose. I just thought it'd be a better fit for chit chat or students. But this board probably gets the most traffic so makes sense.

    You probably should lurk to get a feel for a board before you start posting.
  • I use chegg, so I rent mine. No more buying textbooks for me!

    <div>I generally rent too! I used a different website though, because I found it to be significantly cheaper than chegg! </div>

    <div>If you had lurked, you would know that many boards have a a lot of regular posters who prefer to talk to the girls that they know, often on the same board or two. You should also probably lurk more if you thought that she was being rude.</div>

    <div>I probably should've just acknowledged the number of posts OP had and not said anything at all as generally senority rules around here. Not a snotty comment at all, it was just an honest mistake. And I totally get wanted to talk to girls they know.. just confusing for "newbies" like myself when people don't stick to the boards, I guess they aren't really categories though.. just suggestions?</div>

  • It seems kind of suspicious that they would give you so much more than other places. At the same time though, it seems like they just mail you a check and you don't have to give them any bank account information. So, if it is a scam, you don't really have much to lose. 
    I'm also a big fan of amazon and half.com for selling books back.

    How is it confusing? I have never once been confused by off topic threads on here...

    The internets are hard for you aren't they? There was no need for you initial comment, and the rest of your comments aren't going to make you any friends around here. Aleigh is a regular poster around here so since she knows us and trusts our opinions she's going to ask us before she asks a bunch of people she doesn't interact with regularly. Why is that so hard to understand? And it's really not that hard to skip NWR thread if you don't care about them.

  • I didn't skip it because I had advice to offer anyways, like I said, I sold my books on amazon and it worked great. I was just curious about why people post on different boards about unrelated topics and now I know!

  • I always bought the international editions on ebay and resold them on amazon and disclosed it was an international edition and always made more than I originally paid. My theory is Amazon groupies have a tendency not to price shop.
  • Guys, chill. She's new. It is confusing for some people--it was for me. I could not figure out why there were so many Good Morning threads when I first started looking. It never crossed my mind that there was random chatter until I started posting more.
