How to Sell Used Textbooks in Singapore

At the end of the academic year, you are stuck with textbooks that you probably will not need in the future. Textbooks often cost a lot and it seems like a waste for these expensive books to collect dust in storage. You might be able to sell them, get some money from them, and allow other students to use the books to learn something. Selling a textbook in Singapore is rather simple if you know where to look.

Things You'll Need

• Used textbooks

Instructions

Second-Hand Book Store

1. Look for business directories online by searching for "Singapore business directory" or look around your house for a business phone book. In the directory, look up businesses that buy and sell second-hand books in your area.

2. Call the businesses and ask them if they accept the particular textbooks you want to sell, and how much they would pay for the books. The Bras Basah Complex near the City Hall MRT Station features many used book stores that might want to buy your textbooks, so you can try visiting them to make inquiries.

3. Go to the book store with your textbooks to exchange them for money.
