Are these going to be crappy 'recycled', or brand new bestsellers and textbooks? I kind of doubt the later.
I would only trade a reader that I didnt like the quality of if I couldnt sell it for a good price. |

Hmmm....
The average cost of a paperback here is AU$20. I have 300 ebooks on my Kobo, so total is AU$6000. Might be worth it. Plenty of money to buy me a Sony PRS-950 and keep me in ebook slush funds for a while. Luddites.... |
