RESELLER PARTNER PROGRAMS
Abebooks provides its member booksellers with opportunities to market their books internationally through major online shopping outlets. Reseller Programs are optional and free for member booksellers to participate in.
Participants' book listings are copied from abebooks to the web sites of partner companies, who in turn present these book listings to their own customers. Partner companies benefit because they can offer their clients a source for out-of-print and hard-to-find books. Booksellers benefit by accessing a larger book-selling market.
Abebooks facilitates its reseller programs by coordinating accounts, inventory, payments and customer service on behalf of both the booksellers and the reseller partner company.
