Also check with local libraries. Most of them can put you on a mailing
list that informs you of local book sales.
Libraries reguarly sell off books by the inch (i.e. you stack them up,
and pay for how tall the stack is), and also buy or take books that are
needed from you.

Well, Amazon also takes a big chunk of the profit as well.
Of course, I find that when I put something on Amazon, it sells quickly,
so maybe it is worth it.
