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.

Green Metropolis

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.

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!)

That's a really cool idea, will try and do that!

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.




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

well if I read it then sell it I can buy another one on the site so it's a gift that keeps on giving


Also I seem to remember you buying me a book called ''shag yourself slim'' Nice work if you can get it

And have you tried it yet? Its an update of the F Plan Diet.

ummm who am I supposed to try it with? or did you just want to rub it in......so to speak

Their loss HC, their loss.

awww ellie

Just sold another book on here bringing my total up to thirty squid made so far, ta very much

This is a great idea.

I normally put my old books into charity shops.

I sell loads on there. I listed one yesterday and just got an Email to say I've sold it already 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.
