Book Outlet is Canada’s largest bargain bookstore that has been operating since 1994. While this retailer exclusively offers new books, its listing prices are much lower than you can find elsewhere. Hence, I can’t avoid mentioning every time I’m asked where to buy cheap used books in Canada. Book Outlet offers discounts of up to 90% on selected tit...
One of the best places to buy cheap used books online in Canada is none other than Amazon, one of the biggest online retailers worldwide.

When buying items from Kijiji, simply look up the books you wish to buy, then contact the seller directl...
Of course, eBay, the popular international selling platform for secondhand items, also ranks among the best places to buy used books online. Here, you can find secondhand books not just from Canada but also from other countries, increasing your chances of finding and negotiating the best prices for your books. Keep in mind that on eBay, some books ...
Yard sales, or garage sales, often have the best bundle deals for secondhand books. Since most of them are held by sellers looking to declutter their space, there’s a very high chance that you can negotiate the books’ prices at these selling events and get the most reads for as little money as possible. The slight downside is, of course, that there...
