As a casual seller there is no charge to list a book...you only pay a fee when it is sold. Book sites like www.abe.com or www.alibris.com charge a fee to sign up and start listing plus a percentage when it sells. Unless you have a lot of books the fees will eat up your profit. They are good resources to check the value of the book first.
