I've always found ways to get rid of them by either selling them to bookstores or donating them. I've got to get rid of a few tons of them by October because I've got my next load coming in then. I'm probably going to donate a lot of them to a United Way fundraiser in trade for some of the books that they had donated. I'm glad they don't care what sells online and what doesn't. :) I don't know what I'm going to do with them, actually.

What are you planning to do with your stockpile? Sounds like they are taking up lots of room. Do you have a plan?

I'm still going through them and haven't listed near all of them. My total cost was about $900 so it was a pretty good investment. I found a lot of them were really old books. I hate old books and try not to buy them but I get them sometimes with big lots like this so it hasn't made looking them up too fun but I'm glad I've recouped my cost and am already $300 or so ahead.
