Thanks, everyone.
Where is McKays around here? I'm only aware of the ones in TN.
We may donate but would like to make a little money.

Powells books. You can enter your isbn and they'll email you and tell you is they'll take it and how much they'll offer. They'll pay shipping too.

19:36 again - I just googled and found booksforamerica.org. Looks like a good place to donate and they offer pick up if you have more than 50 books.

NP: We have a ton of books that my husband just wants to throw away. I think this is so so wasteful and would like to donate. Any ideas where we can donate and if there are any services that offer pick-up? (I promise we are not lazy jerks, DH works full time and is doing all pick up and drop off of our son from preschool while I am pregnant and on bed rest-- we just really don't have time to bring books someplace far away.). Thanks!!

Most places sell them for half of the publisher's price on the cover, and give you about half of that as store credit. Some places also have different categories for books and you can only use your credit for the lesser category.

Are you trying to make money or do you just want to get rid of them? If the latter, please consider donating them.
