Just clearing down the house OH has around 200 books is it worth bringing them or selling at a car boot?

Bring them! If you do a search through on "books" you'll find that books here are generally more expensive, and a lot of people who have got rid of theirs have regretted it.

Thanks Pollyana - see you soon, we fly on the 3rd July

i'll second that,too expensive

I was going to flog them at a car boot for 50p each!!!! May go and buy some more from a car boot instead

I never get rid of books (Unless theyare bought as junk reads or I find one in Hardback or in better condition)

Just sourcing some again can be a trial let alone the price.

I'm working on a website just now where people can sell/buy books

Cheaper than e-bay for selling, cos it will be free (for a while anyway)

Very good idea Wendy ...let us knoow when it's up and running
When I'm not moderating I read 'Clive Cussler' books, I've got all 19 in the 'Dirk Pitt' series and only 2 of them left to read. Then I'll start on his 'Kurt Austin' series, then his 'Oregon Files'....I'm madly in love with Dirk Pitt
Most I get from K Mart for $11.66 or I go to second hand book stores for the ones I can't get new

you'll be lucky to sell books at a carboot here in the uk, you can't give them away.... I have about 2000 needing a new home and NO takers...

Can we buy them off you!!! - if they are the right ones that OH reads!!!!

ooh I love Dirk Pitt too have read them all, especially since they made Sahara and movie and cast Matthew Mcconaughey as Dirk. Yummy

BTW Skye bring them. I'm bringing all mine and anyone else's I can get my hands on for free, we'll swap them when I come down to visit. In fact we could get a library going and move them around QAS? lol

I'm a huge James Patterson fan. I've read all the Alex Cross ones, and have nearly done all his WOmens Murder Club ones.

I also like Mark Billingham.

all my books are "the classics" things like black penguin classics, and orange penguin clasics, I am bringing my Terry Pratchetts becasue I love him.... I also have loads of nursing text books... I have some that I want to keep... but not many!

Have given my chick lit to my sister already...

I don't expect anyone wants voltaire, shakespeare, lawrence, de maurier, barstow etc do they?

I made good money and sold alot of mine, (the ones I genuinely wanted to part with) but they were mint,and many were of use and interest to many, not just airport trash.
