BookScouter - Sell & buy books

I saw this app as an ad and at first I was like “nah” but my wife has been bugging me about selling my old text books. I kept telling her that they are to old and wouldn’t sell. I took a leap of fair and tried it. I was surprised that some of the books were still worth some money. After going to the individual venders that the app offers I was able to get my prepaid shipping label and sent out the next day! Obviously this is a side gig but it was enjoyable. Now my wife and I are planning on looking around the house for more books to sell. It’s like a scavenger hunt, looking for books, looking for codes haha. I am giving a 4/5 stars because I feel the app and the computer version should have it were it syncs. It would be cool to scan a ton of book codes on your phone and then have all the books you scanned on the computer. Also why is there a login on the computer but not the app????

Was looking for an app to sell some law textbooks and actually spotted someone at goodwill scanning books … I stole a glance at her phone and saw the scout logo and hit google to figure out what it was and low and behold the holy grail of book selling. In addition to textbooks, I’ve also posted some self-help and other nonfiction that are worth profit. I feel the resale value is far and will, return to the app and recommend to others for all book selling needs. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

I inherited a lot of books from my dad (he was an English professor) which have sitting around for years. Now that I’m trying to get rid of them, I really just wanted to do checks to see if any of them had any value before they got dumped. And this bookscouter app seems to be exactly what I need . The only thing I wished the app could do is pull the “answer” from just imaging the ISBN # with the camera and not need the full barcode as that often doesn’t exist for older books and typing in the codes slows down the process greatly, but otherwise it has worked great and has helped ameliorate my fears that the majority of these books had any street value beyond certain collectors.
