How to Sell Your Books to BookFool.com
My friends, the rules have changed:
NO MORE COMPLICATED RULES!
Most bookstores impose complicated rules on the sale of your books. If you want the most money back, you have to sell by the third day of finals when the moon is full while wearing a blue shirt and penny loafers and blah, blah, blah.
Worst among these is the wholesale rule: Schools only buy the books they can sell again next semester. So if a professor changes editions or the school reaches their quota of a particular book, they will offer you a low “wholesale price” for it, regardless of its value in the used market.
BookFool.com doesn’t mess with wholesale prices or quotas. We’re buying books for the national market, so if a book is valuable anywhere in the used market, we can offer you a good price for it.
WE MAKE IT EASY
We make it easy to sell your books. No matter where you originally bought them, bring ALL YOUR BOOKS–textbooks, study guides, paperbacks–to one of our buyback locations. We’ll find their values quickly and tell you what they’re worth.
There’s no obligation and no pressure to sell to us. All we need to complete the transaction is your name and a picture ID (student ID or state-issued ID).
IF YOU’RE TIRED OF ALL THE RULES…
Give BookFool.com a try. Click LOCATIONS to see if we’re coming to a school near you.
And this semester, we’re giving away BookFool.com sport bottles at most locations. Get yours while supplies last!
You make it look easy
Some people make it look easy. Some programmers can execute code that just plain works. Some accountants can make the numbers dance and the spreadsheets sing. They amaze you with their effortless success.
And some bike tricksters, well… [video link]
At BookFool.com, we have a certain affinity for bicycles. Our first website promotion was on the back of a bicycle at Ole Miss, and about 25% of our current full-time staff ride their bicycles to work.
Thanks to Danny and Inspired Bicycles for inspiring us with their mastery!

Help! As mentioned in the last post in which you helped us name a truck, we’ve got another one we could use your naming input on.
It’s a former bread delivery truck with a top speed of 60 mph (unloaded, with all the doors open). Sides of aluminum with dual tires on the back. Here it is before we applied the logo this morning:
And here it is with the logo applied:
