Bookbyte -- Will the real slim shady please stand up?
Bookbyte.com – serving students with discounted textbooks nationwide.
BookByte is an online textbook retailer. Their new book pricing appears to be pretty average, slightly less than what you can expect to spend in your campus book store. Like other online textbook retailers they offer to purchase your textbooks.
Follow up:
The process is somewhat standard, you enter your ISBN, receive a price quote, if you decide to sell your old textbooks to them they send a postage paid box, and once they receive your old textbook they send you a check. When I entered a few textbooks to see how their pricing compares to other websites, I was shocked to find that they pay almost 50% less than other websites such as Ecampus for the same textbooks. So if you are planning on selling your textbooks back, I recommend you go elsewhere.
They also offer a “Bazzar Marketplace,” which allows you to list your items and sell them along side BookByte’s. The concept is very similar to Amazon’s Marketplace, yet they don’t have enough people selling using the service to make the prices truly competitive.
