    New here. Did a search but could not find anything.

    We just got an '11, and sold our '05. When we bought our '05 we also bought the entire 3 volume Factory Service Manual set. Authentic, print, mint condition (I opened them once long ago to find sometphng). So we don't need these any more. eBay doesn't look like a great option --- full of knock-off and pirated stuff. These are the real thing from Toyota; you can take the entire car apart down to every nut and bolt, and do so *properly*.

    Any good ways to sell these in the Prius community? Not looking for a huge chunk of change, but a decent price plus shipping from Maryland (which my add up --- they are heavy).

    Appreciate any advice.

    Thanks.
    Warren

    You already found the right place, this is a private sales thread, and I would think they would sell rather quickly. I have an '08, other wise they would already have been SOLD!!! :D

    Looks like I can fit them into two Priority Mail Medium Flat Rate Boxes (flat rate for anywehere in the lower 48) at ~$11.35 each, so ~$23 total. No idea what we paid for them (but think it was $200-$300) and no idea what they are really worth, but they are worthless to me now, so how about $100 total, including shipping?

    I can receive via Paypal, and take credit cards via Paypal too.

    Whoever gets back to me first wins.
