There's more to life than watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer! No. Really, there is! Honestly! Here's a place for Buffistas to come and discuss what it is they're reading, their favorite authors and poets. "Geez. Crack a book sometime."

Soooo, does anyone have a recommendation for websites to find out about the value of 1st editions of non-antique books? I have two different books that I suspect are worth more than I paid for (especially since I paid less than a dollar for each), but I don't know.

Have you tried abebooks? Since it's a bookselling site, it's probably not good for insurance prices of first editions, but you'll get a sense of what the market price might be.

I'd use MXBF. (Aka Bookfinder.) This cross-searches most of the known used-book services, so you can see the range of prices.

Shit's all sorts of different now.
Well, I just paid the $20 and the woman I spoke to said if I sent a letter, they might remove the negative credit item.

I read Westerfeld's Uglies a few weeks ago, and liked it a lot. Now I have to return it to my niece and see if she has Pretties...
