Some books have a very limited audience, especially some time after they were published.

I've decided that I'm going to box up all my books, and the next time I go to either Phoenix or Kansas City, the two nearest Half Price Books to me, and sell them there. They actually take almost everything, in my experience, even if you don't get very much for them. At least it's cash in hand and the possibility that someone else will someday own them.

You might want to look up there website www.hpb.com and see where the nearest one for you is.
