amazon.com, alibris.com, abebooks.com, half.com, valorebooks.com, textbookx.com, and http://www.barnesandnoble.com/used/

Great article, swapping seems to be a fast-catching trend these days.
I was using Paperbackswap about a year or so ago. The service was interesting, but the idea of points seemed so much like real money that it made more sense to just use Amazon or eBay.
What I discovered a few months ago was Swaptree.com. Here’s a site for keeps. It’s all just one-for-one swaps, its completely free – and you can even print shipping labels when the trade is completed – no harrowing trips to the post office anymore! You can also swap books for DVDs, DVDs for CDs, they even have video games for your kids! It’s a great site and I recommend anyone looking to save money should check it out as soon as possible. They even have a free shipping promotion going on right now if you recommend it to friends. You can get your whole book club going online!
