Cash in the Attic?

If the news that a first edition of the Book of Mormon, found recently in a barn in upstate New York, will soon be sold at auction for an expected $70,000 to $90,000 doesn't have you combing your bookshelf for hidden gems, I don't know what will.

So it's worth mentioning that we're always buying books for the store. If you've got stacks of books around the house (and, really, who doesn't?), consider bringing them in. We'll look them over, and while we can't take everything, we'll be happy to buy what we can. (See our book-buying policies for more information.) We'll pay cash immediately, or you can take store credit for your books. You can use your credit right away or keep it for up to a year, so you can mull over your choices before you decide.

I'm not saying you'll make enough to retire on, but you can always hope.
