Integration into facebook makes acquiring early adopters and crossing the chasm much easier. Using facebook integration means access to friends lists, allowing users to buy and sell to people they would feel comfortable interacting with. There will be listings to cheapest options from other online stores available for all texts, thus making sure that people post a cheap and fair price.

No inventory => low initial costs Referral Fees: From the postings to online textbook sites Advertisement Fees: As with most websites, advertisement will be a great source of revenue. The site is scalable to all universities.
