    Abstract: The invention provides a method that permits a user to log onto an interactive website, which serves as the medium between the buyer user and the seller user. The buyer user is then prompted to enter book location criteria, such as author, title, ISBN or class in order to enable the website to perform a search through its database of used books. If the website finds the particular book that is sought by the buyer user, the buyer user can contact the seller user, via the website, to make and offer on the book. The website provides a method that permits seller users to list used books they wish to sell. The seller user lists a book's location criteria, on the website, such as author, title ISBN or class in order to enable a prospective buyer to easily locate them via the website during a database search.
