    Does anyone know if bookshops in Dublin are still taking in school books as I dont want to get the bus up lugging around books to be told no, and I have tried my local bookshops and they told me to feck off, basically.

    Or has anyone used a website such as School Book Exchange to sell theirs?





    PS if any future fifth/sixth years need some books, message me:p
    I have art history,irish O, Maths revise +shortcut to success, and spanish, in good condition cos of the fact they were never used............................

    The only correct answer is "incinerate them".

    I think the little game/bookshop on talbot street, basically opposite supervalue near Connolly station will buy them.

    Your old school may take them back to distribute to students.

    Absolutely. There are always families needing help getting books.

    If you just want to get rid of them you can offer them for free on Jumbletown.ie. Lots of people there would be interested in recent schoolbooks.
