Basically you sell your old books. There is a set price of £3.75 charged for each book no matter what it is and you get £3.00 of that. Money made by the site goes to the Woodland Trust to plant trees. I have recently joined this and have sold two books already and you can buy fairly cheaply too.

Sounds like an excellent idea.

I know there used to be a bit in the front of books that started something like "This book is sold subject to the condition that it will not be re-sold, lent..." etc.

Is that not printed in books any more?

Not that I've seen but if there is there are going to be an awful lot of Amazon marketplace and Ebay customers carted off to prison. :D

Only on books that come free with magazines/other products (but I've donated quite a few of these to charity - charity shops do actually sell these!)

I've sold about 8 books on there now. I was surprised actually as I didn't think I would sell any. I rarely read a book twice so I am happy to get some money back on the ones I have bought or been given as presents.

Hummmff remind me not to buy you a book as a present. :D




Only joking it sounds like a great idea and if I were more organised I would do it too.

This is a great idea.

I sell loads on there. I listed one yesterday and just got an Email to say I've sold it already :eek: If they don't sell after a few weeks I just give them to charity and the not so good ones I pass on too but I sell the decent stuff. Might as well get a few quid.
