You know, I was recently looking at the bulk lots on ebay, and several of the descriptions didn't even list the titles that were included in the lot. That was very annoying. I was thinking about buying a lot off EBay and scanning what wasn't on Bookshare. Then I was going to use them to start trading on paperbackswap.com or bookmooch.com. I backed off after several descriptions didn't have the titles. Maybe I just didn't look at the right ones.

The minimum price for a book at HDC is seventy-five cents. I forget what the shipping charge is, but it is nothing spectacular. The advantage is that when you buy multiple books from the same seller you get a discount on shipping. That way, if you buy enough books at once, you could very well be better off than at Amazon where you are charged $3.99 per book for shipping no matter how many you buy. Again though, if you are going to buy a large number of books your best bet is a library sale, a thrift store or a bulk lot from eBay. That can be very cheap, but if you are looking for a specific title you are not likely to find it that way unless you are very lucky._ _ _ "Socialism is an attack on poverty." - W. E. B.
