Exams are over. Your child bookshelf is full of Cambridge and Edexcel textbooks. What now? Before you store them in a closet or throw them away, consider this: those books are worth SAR 2,000+ new, and they still hold significant value.
Why These Books Retain Value
Cambridge IGCSE, Edexcel, and A-Level curricula do not change every year. A Physics Coursebook from 2023 is still valid in 2026. The syllabus content remains the same for 3-5 years. This means your child finished textbooks are exactly what a student next year needs.
What These Books Are Worth
- Cambridge IGCSE Coursebook: ~SAR 200 new
- Cambridge IGCSE Workbook: ~SAR 120 new
- Per subject (Coursebook + Workbook): ~SAR 320 new
- Full set (8 subjects): ~SAR 2,560 new
Through Kitaaby, these books can be sold at 30-50% of new price — meaning SAR 768 to SAR 1,280 back to you, and a 50-70% saving for the next family.
The Problem: What Most Parents Do
- Store them "just in case" — they sit in a closet for years and eventually get thrown out.
- Throw them away — SAR 2,000+ of value goes to a landfill.
- Give them to a friend — good, but limited to one family.
The Better Option: Sell Through Kitaaby
Kitaaby makes it easy:
- Request a free pickup — we come to your home in Riyadh.
- We inspect and list — your textbooks appear on our store as priced books.
- A family buys them — they save 50-70% on their child textbooks.
- You earn money back — instead of losing SAR 2,000+ to a closet or landfill.
The Social Impact
When you sell your child finished textbooks through Kitaaby, you are not just earning money back. You are making education affordable for a family that might not be able to spend SAR 2,000+ on new books. You are keeping books out of landfills. And you are supporting a circular economy for education in Riyadh.
