FINALLY sold the last of a very profitable text book haul [View all]

So about 6 years ago as I was leaving a yard sale, the woman holding it asked if I wanted to learn Spanish. She told me she was a Spanish teacher a a local high school and had some sample textbooks. At first I declined then reconsidered when she said a $1 a piece. So walked over to look at them. They were brand new teachers editions and scanning each one revealed price ranges of $75 - $200 on Amazon. So I bought all of them - about 9 total. And they all sold withing a week, netting me over $800 - except one. That one lone text book sat in my inventory for over half a decade, and it's worth steadily dropped over time. Then Amazon put in new rules about text books and I had to remove it from my listings.

About 3 months ago I decided to list it on ebay at the the competitive price of $20 and it finally sold this morning. Yay!
