I've bought a few used books this year (from overseas, on eBay), but only because they were no longer in print and not available as ebooks. In general, I don't really want to buy paper books anymore, though it's not because of a lack of love for paper books. I enjoy them more than ebooks. If I owned a house (instead of living in a rented apartment), I'd probably still buy mostly paper books, both used and new.

I've been meaning to sell my books, but it almost doesn't seem to be worth the effort. Most of my library is in English (and I'm in Germany), online stores that buy used books pay so little that I'd rather give them away to a good home than to let the sharks have them, and shipping expenses paired with eBay fees make selling them online one by one somewhat unappealing also.
