What are the chances that my textbooks will sell online?

I put up two physics books on Amazon.com, half.com, and craigslist. One of them I used at UT Austin and one I used at my community college here in San Antonio. The prices I put were lower than what was posted at the time and they are in good to very good condition.

  1. You may want to wait until August or September to try to resell books. There will be more people looking for textbooks during those months than right now (it's nearly summer and more people will be taking classes in the fall)
  2. Unfortunately, you'll just have to wait and see. I personally don't have any experience selling books on craigslist, but I know that putting the lowest price and having the books in the best condition possible is the fastest way to sell them on amazon and half.com. Usually used book sales spike at the beginning of the semester and then drop off until the next semester, so you'll just have to wait it out. It sounds like you're doing everything you can, though!
