Sister Roper and I have duplicate copies of several LDS books e.g. Jesus the Christ, Miracle of Forgiveness, etc. And one of our resolutions is to simplify our living space as much as possible.
Has anyone here had success selling used copies of LDS books? Ebay? Amazon? Half-Price books?
Or should I just give them away?

Also, what about a religious book swap, with your friends in the neighborhood. Ask them if they would give you a book that they have that's religious and you offer one of yours. You might even arrange to get back together and discuss their book and yours...
It might turn you into a missionary...

You could also use the pages of old lds books as scrapbook pages. Just cannibalize them, cut out pieces, use them as borders and such when your wife scrapbooks your future missionary son's missions... just imagine having a background cutout of a star or something with the text of the Miracle of Forgiveness behind a picture of your son in the MTC.

Doesn't Deseret Book still have online auctions? They used to and I haven't checked yet to confirm if they still do. However, I don't know how much success you will have and if it would be worth the hassle to sell them that way. I think an LDS book swap would be a good idea for a ward activity.
Just for the record, what's OCD? If we're teasing Ray, I don't want to be left out in the cold or do it in ignorance...
p.s. As to donating to your meetinghouse library, they may or may not accept it. Check with the librarian first. There are things they can't accept as well. Since Mrs. Cat Herder is librarian in our ward, I know a lot of people think they can just dump their old church news or church magazines on them. It is not always appreciated, because a meetinghouse library has limited space and a lot of stuff that gets "donated" is never looked at by anyone else anyway...
