Are these ok to post? They don't have ISBN's at all ... but I'd rather not have to post each one individually (we're talking ... hundreds of books!) just because the ISBN doesn't match.

What to do....what to do.... Hopefully someone has a great answer for me.... otherwise I will be Freecycling all these books.

 

Thanks!

You could offer them in teh book bazaar and just list the titles.  I'd offer a deal if they aren't WL books.

Are you sure there is no isbn-  sometimes they are on the copyright page, not the back of the book.

Some book club books don't have ISBNs.  The Book Bazaar is a good suggestion -- you'll find in on the Community menu, under "discussion forums."  Or you could post them without an ISBN, a few at a time.  You can copy and paste descriptions from other listings here.

What you cannot do is pick an ISBN that is not on your copy of the book, and use that to post your book.  If you post a book to an ISBN listing, the ISBN has to match.
