What books do you need?

I am contemplating the feasablity of auctioning as a way to be a SAHM(see full-tim auctioning in supplemental income). What books are homeschoolers seeking to purchase??

Inexpensive ones.

One of the things I see go really go fast on ebay and at our library book sale are:
Saxon Math books
back issues of Click, Spider, Muse, Ladybug mags
The classics, Newberry and Caldecott books.

True! I have bought a lot of classic literature, and Ladybug mags at our library sales - for 25 cents each or less. I'm not sure an auctioneer would make much of a profit off of me!

2cutekids - do you have a stash of inexpensive homeschooling supplies? It seems to me you need to find a market for what you have access to, not find a market then look for supplies. JMHO.

At this time, I am exploring my options. I know that I often see books that I feel would be appropriate for homeschoolers(Indiana has many homeschoolers). Since I do not homeschool, I thought that I should see if my inclinations are correct.

Well, we homeschoolers are always on the lookout for a bargain. And many older books are highly prized. So if you have a source for these, you may just be in business.
