How many of you are selling back textbooks and if so where? Do any of you plan to donate them?

i sell my textbooks directly to students in my college for at least 90% of the price for which i paid. sometimes i could get away with selling it for 110% of the price i originally paid. i never sell back to the bookstore 'cause (it's a well known fact) they give you only 25% of the retail price back.

if i can't sell it to students in my school, i sell directly on amazon.com. i avoid selling on discount sites like ecampus.com or campusi.com simply 'cause i wanna sell it for more than the selling price they have on those sites. what's funny is i buy some of my textbooks from those sites, so i end up selling them for 200% the original price LOL.

yes, i'm a bit greedy, but shoot, textbooks are expensive ;|
