"I go to thrift stores and garage sales and find textbooks and teacher books out on the tables," Trudy said. .... Trudy resells books online for about half of what they'd cost in stores. She makes a profit, and her customers get a bargain.

That's surprising... Once, while buying a used textbook, the seller told me that textbooks do not sell well. She said they usually end up in the trash. I noticed at other used book sales, too, that textbooks (i.e. biology, chemistry, etc.) don't seem to sell. So, there are plenty of textbooks just sitting at these used book sales. They tend to sell for $0.50 to $1.00 around here. Many are in excellent condition, and sometimes they include unused computer CDs or access codes to academic websites.
