no one is going to give you 400 bucks for books, you could probably sell a 20 dollar book on amazon for like 3 bucks.

I have one book that is definitely no longer published and hasn't been for like 30 years. However, I doubt it has any great value. The book that was most expensive I think was around $80. oOo:
