Selling cookbooks online with Zapper
Every house has one and every home needs one. For many people, the kitchen is the most important and sacred room in the house. At its heart, the kitchen is the meeting place of people, whether that be family, friends, students or even co-workers. Why is this, I hear you ask. Well, the answer to that is simple: Food. Like the primal animals we are, humans will always congregate around food, hoping to scavenge what they can for themselves. In our office, this is abundantly clear on ‘Pizza Friday’, when the workers of Zapper descend upon the kitchen like a pack of hungry wolves; not a pretty sight. Yet, what makes a kitchen a kitchen? What is contained within this space that give it such household status.
There are many characteristics that make a kitchen a kitchen. Pots and pans, table and chairs, chopping boards and cutlery are all things that might spring to mind. However, there is one type of object that I guarantee dwells in the cupboards or shelves of your kitchen. I’ll give you a clue. You were probably given it as a gift from your loving mother and haven’t gotten around to using it. Still not there? It will almost certainly have a big picture of celebrity on the front beaming away with their pearly white teeth. Of course, I am referring to the cookbook.
How much are my cookbooks worth
In Zapper’s humble opinion, there are three types of cookbook. Firstly, the ones which sit displayed proudly on the side with a nice cover and set of book marks. These tend to be merely for display; a clever trick homeowners employ to give the illusion that they can actually cook. The second type of cookbook is the cupboard cookbook. This sits ideally in the cupboard for days, weeks, months and sometimes even years without seeing the light of the day. Some say the pages have never been touched. The last, and by far the rarest of all cookbooks, is the cookbook you actually (occasionally) use. This might have a few stains, rips and odours, but it’s what stops you from having beans on toast every day of your life. To get a valuation for your cookbooks, type the barcodes into zappers valuation engine, or scan them with our handy app!
Now, I’m not suggesting that you get rid of anything you use regularly, but wouldn’t you say those other cookbooks could be put to better use? This where Zapper comes in. Why not trade your old or unwanted cookbooks with Zapper and fill your pockets in the process? Its as simple as putting your unwanted item’s barcodes into Zapper’s website or app and getting an instant valuation; we’ll take care of the rest. There’s no hidden costs and postage is 100% FREE of charge. So, what are you waiting for? Sell cookbooks, games, gadgets and much more to Zapper today!
