I'm the type of person who is unlikely to read a book more than once. I have SOOOOO many books that I have finished that are just sitting around. I would like to sell them in a lot on Ebay but they don't seem to go for much money. What do you do?

With the books I've finished, I normally keep them. Especially if they're really good. Since I don't buy books much, I would read my favorites over again. But sometimes if it's bad or I don't like it, I would donate it to the library since I certainly wouldn't read it anymore.

I love te books that I buy, and I will often read them again and again, just as I'll listen to a good piece of music again and again and again. I read my books and then I put them on my shelf so hat I can read them again some day.

Yeah, I just keep mine. I know you weren't really looking for that answer, but, hey.......

You can always lend them to people, and there may come a time when you'll want to read them again.

I usually keep it but some I have already given to friends. If you want to sell them try it on a local second hand bookstore instead because they might fetch a better price there, Happy reading!

I just put the finished book on the book shelf. And the book of my primary and in school, almost selled to the people who buy garbages. And I think they are back to foctory to make a paper and make a bood again. I think this really waisting. If those book can come back to school and give other child to use, there can't be wasting so many papers.

Its just there in the house kept in one corner, there are times that I feel like reading it again, when I have the time and the chance I read it again specially those of my favorites.

I don't read books I've already read either. I can't sell them to a second hand store because the one near here just give credit and I can't read used books. The musty smell makes me sneeze.

I donate my books to a library. The library sells them to make money a few times a year. That way they aren't wasted. I don't think there's much of a market for used books otherwise. Ebay has too many fees for me to sell anything there.

I usually keep them on the bookshelves. That way, people can borrow the books that I have used so that they don't have to spend money on that particular book. I am also the type of person who likes rereading a certain book or novel, so I keep the books I've already read.

I usually take them to a used book store that buys and sells books.then use that money to buy new ones
the amount the give is 1/10th of the cover price, but since I live in an apartment and have little storage room,I cannot bring myself to throw them away.
I hope this was helpful
