i've just heard that a lot and it befuddles me. unless you've got collectible editions secondhand books are almost literally worthless.

It has been my experience, that a well maintained pBook, usually goes to my credit for 25 percent of the price upon the back cover. The dealer then pockets another 25 percent, and the customer gets the read for 50 percent off the published, back cover price. So...with that in mind, I would get a completely free read every fifth book I sold to the dealer....and has been most enjoyable to date.
