I am trying to make some money at the same time as de-cluttering. Our finances are very tight right now.
I have about 25 Jewish books that I have which I dont intend reading again, mostly Jewish novels, the type that cost between $18 and $24 brand new in the Judaica store.

If I advertise them for sale on my local ladies nshei email group, how much could I charge for each one? Aim #1 is to make some money back on this. Aim #2 is to de-clutter, but not as important.
Suggestions please? TIA

Depending on the condition, I'd say $5-$10.

Used books don't go for much, but you can charge whatever people are willing to pay, and if anything is out of print for a while, you might be able to recoup plus some. Start by listing for what you want and then go down from there until it is no longer worth it for you to part with the book. You can benchmark by searching at amazon for prices.

You can get ideas on JewishUsedBooks.com. Maybe charge a little more because it's local so no shipping.
