- What if my book doesn't sell?
Students have two options when their books do not sell. First, a student should review the price to see if their asking price is too high. A student should compare the competition for selling the book. If many books of the same type are listed, a student may lower the price to get their book sold. Students usually buy the best condition and lowest price. Secondly, If the book hasn't sold for a while, it might be an old edition or unused book.
- What if my book is not the same edition as the class requirement?
Many students will buy old editions for classes if the price is right so list your book at a savings price.
