Why should I pay full price for any book, magazine, CD or DVD when someone else has got a perfectly good copy sitting unused somewhere? Half.com sellers typically perform better than most warehouse retailers by shipping right away, because they've got...

I shop at this merchant for books and music, I have never had a bad experience. The books are exactly as described and for VERY inexpensive prices. You can even say what you want to pay and wait for one to come to your price! Even the shipping costs are...

Pros: great prices, selection and service! Cons: beware of people with negative feedback!!
I have been buying and selling on Half.com since they have been in business and I am 99% happy with them. As a seller I am able to sell many of my old books, textbooks, and other items(cds, electronics, trading cards) for about 50% of the price I paid...

Pros: cheap, excellent choices Cons: addicting
I love to read and I never realized how expensive books are till I went to a local book store and seen a self-help book I have been wanting for the price of $24. May not seem like a lot to some, but to me it is a big chunk of change. I found my book on...

Pros: Find out of print books for cheap! Sell your old books and make money! Cons: Wish they'd send checks faster, addicting, search sometimes is not good.
I love this site. I love this site. I LOVE THIS SITE.
Did I mention I love this site?

A friend sent me a link to Half.com back in February, and I sort of tucked it away for a little while. But...

Pros: If selling: make extra money while de-cluttering. If buying: Get what you want cheap! Cons: If selling: frequent trips to the post office.
Ok.. I admit it, I am a little out of control when it comes to buying books. Since I was a small child, I have always loved to read, and over the last 20 years, I've collected an amazing amount of books. Of course, there are some I'll keep forever,...

Pros: Excellent interface for shopping from competitive vendors; great prices and service. Cons: Indiscreet search engine; multiple vendors means multiple shipping charges.
... I could buy loads more stuff at Half.Com.
I just finished my first shopping experience there. What I mean by this is that I have located, ordered, received and been billed for the products I wanted. No shopping experience is complete until...

As an English literature major, I hate to admit I shop at Half.com before I go anywhere else. I love the prices here, and I love the selection.
If you're familiar with Ebay and shop for books on Ebay, you'll want to quit. Just come here...

Pros: Books, CDs and DVDs for less!! And you can sell too! Cons: Search feature doesn't always find what I'm looking for.
Confession - I love buying books. When the online bookseller giant Amazon.com came into my life, I thought I was in book buying heaven. Now, I've found an even better source for buying books, music, movies, DVDs, and more…. Half.com! The beauty...

Pros: Excellent deals on books and cd's! Cons: None at all!
I have been a user of Half.com as both a buyer and a seller for almost a year and have been nothing but pleased with it. The prices are unbeatable and the service is very efficient. Every 2 weeks like clockwork the money I have earned through sales is...

Being in college I have come to realize that books devour an enormous part of my income. I came across half.com in my sophomore year and I thank my lucky stars! I have saved literally thousands of dollars on buying and selling books back after I have...

Pros: low prices, large selection, easy to use Cons: can't ask seller questions about their merchandise
I started looking at Half.com about a year ago when I was looking for a book that even my local bookstore didn't carry and they wanted to charge me an extra five dollars to order an already 30 dollar book. I didn't want to pay that so I started...

Pros: Fast, efficient, cheap. Cons: Could improve shipping options.
It's one of those books you just can't seem to find anywhere, a specialty book, out of print and enough weren't printed in the original run to make it a used book commodity. You've run a search and come up empty. All the ones in the library have either...

Pros: great selection and automatic notifiers Cons: not every book or record you want or have will be listed
