Sell your used textbooks for beer

The expanding images on rollover is awful usability, the site idea is clever.<p>Does anyone have an example number I can use to see how it works? I don't have any text books and don't know what to search for on Amazon.

I initially thought this was going to let me sell my textbooks and have beer delivered to my door.<p>Sadly, it looks like it just calculates the beer value of your books (unless I am missing something here).

The "Sell for Beer" buttons don't seem to do anything at all in Firefox 3.6.16 on Ubuntu 10.10.<p>Otherwise a funny idea. Are there any laws about direct-mailing alcohol, though? It seems like much of your target market is legally prohibited from buying alcohol, and I would be surprised if there weren't restrictions in at least some states.

I'd rather sell my textbooks for money (perhaps I don't like beer). I can then choose to buy wine, more books, cigarettes, course fees ...<p>That said, it's kind of a neat way to find which site is paying the most for my books. Kudos for a simple execution.

Nice idea, but:<p>"We're sorry, but something went wrong."<p><a href="http://www.beerfortextbooks.com/results?brand=bud&#38;q=ISBN+0131492020" rel="nofollow">http://www.beerfortextbooks.com/results?brand=bud&#38;q=ISBN...</a>

As an avid Keystone Light drinker, I'm disappointed that you show it in a bottle! I have never seen Keystone Light in a bottle, only cans (and kegs).

I always found it sad: people waiting in lines to sell their text-books! Textbooks to beer converter sets a new low: it is pathetic

I only see one or two good beers for trade ;)<p>Good idea, though.

This works great with chrome and you can search by title as well

Really creative affiliate marketing.
