    Hi,
    Anyone know of anywhere that will buy my secondhand school books?? Preferably somewhere in town. Have books for the LC and JC. Most are in perfect condition!

    Well my bookstores are accepting them right now. Not sure about you.

    A question I wanna ask is, how much can we expect to get? Just want to know approximately so I don't get ripped off :P

    Throw them in the bin, money can't buy that kind of satisfaction.

    look em up, I hope to head down as soon as possible and get rid of all these books, Ridiculous to think there are some I never used, as new like irish books and french books, School book scam every year.

    That's what I intend to do that with Revise Wises and the like. Thankfully in my school we just get all our text books on loan and hand them back at the end of the year, so we're not left with a huge pile of needless books.

    Any places other than the wise owl still accepting second hand LC books?

    Their website says they're no longer accepting them :(
