I set up an Ebay account, but I need to know, does it really ask for credit card info to set it up?

I have used ebay and Amazon both with good results. I also buy from abebooks.com a lot and like them, but I don't know where they ship to.

When I first opened my paypal account to purchase on ebay, the only thing I needed was my checking account information. I've never had a problem with it. I've successfully bopught many used books on ebay and have been satisfied every time. And with ebay, the good thing is, if a seller has huge shipping fees, then don't buy from them. Keep looking, there are always very fair sellers who aren't looking to gouge you with exorbitant shipping fees.

I'm also all about www.amazon.com!

I used to buy used books at great prices when I was in college. I've bought a camera on the site as well.

A few links you might want to check out.

http://secure.paperbackswap.com/

Paperback swap. Many members have their books listed. It only costs for postage.

Another idea, and one which I'm thinking of starting in my area is:

http://www.meetup.com/

Look in your area and see if their are any exchange groups or book sale groups.

Thanks for the tip everyone. I am checking ebay although most shipping to Puerto Rico is rather expensive, and am also checking Amazon, even from Brazil I used to order books from them. I like their service and prices quite a bit.
