Amazon has introduced a new program called the Textbooks Trade-In program, which allows users to exchange used textbooks in return for a gift card from Amazon.

The way this program works is simple, user first needs to search for a book he or she wants to trade and view how much gift credit they will receive. If the user is happy with the deal, he or she can print a pre-paid shipping label and send the book through mail. Once the book is received by Amazon, it will be verified by a third party, after the confirmation from the third party, the gift card will be deposited in user’s Amazon account.

While this is a cool deal, but you will have to satisfy yourself with a gift card, instead of real cash.

Amazon already offers a similar program for used DVDs and video games.
