    Hi

    any great ideas on where I can sell mums collection of Scottish rural/old/western isles books

    most are coming up on ebay, but was wondering what other options there were.

    Thanks

    There are several online sellers of old and valuable books and can’t you sell old books through Amazon as well?

    There’s also a huge second hand bookshop in Alnwick station (closer to Scotland) and loads in places like Ross on Wye.

    What are the books anyway?
