   Books
When we learned that the shop we cleaned was going out of buisness I started collecting books. They'd have thrown them out if they didn't sell anyway. We once got two boxes full from the dumpster once. Well one box we sold a few weeks ago we got $5 for. I was thrilled thinking wow we had 5 more boxes almost full of books. Most were childrens books but still. I was hoping for at least that if not a touch less per box. Well I took all 5 boxes in and I got 6 and change for all 5 boxes!!! The excuse was that because they were all childrens books that that's about all they get so they can't pay that much for them! I know its a half price book store and all but that's just sad. I still bet they will turn around and resale them all and make twice that much! I didn't have much choice in wheather or not to accept the offer. The only other place that accepts books doesn't pay you cash, they give you a coupn for more books in that same store. The only other location is in Fort Worth and my mom's said more than once she aint driving all the way out there. I once sold a bunch of books along with a Manga book got $5 for them. Someone told me they now pay more for those but I doubt much more. My mom told me to try to resale it on ebay and I told her that because we don't have a credit or debit card that we can't. I told her I could resale them on Amazon.com but again you must have a credit or debit card. So we're stuck with them cause I seriously doubt they'll give you more than 1 or 2 for them.
