I recently switched majors and have a Bio 1/2 lab kit I’d like to sell. Is there a designated platform on the ASU website for students to buy and sell course materials? I couldn’t find one.

ASU does not maintain an official internal marketplace or platform specifically for student-to-student sale of textbooks or lab kits.
-
The ASU Library*handles textbook availability and reserves materials, but this is not a student exchange system — it focuses on institutional access, digital materials, and Open Educational Resources
-
Sun Devil Campus Stores (the official bookstore) offer textbook buyback services—students can sell back their textbooks to the store, either in person or online via vendors like ValoreBooks, but that’s a vendor buyback, not peer-to-peer trading
-
Facebook groups like “ASU Textbook Buy/Sell/Swap”, “ASU List” or “ASU Buy & Sell” are commonly used by ASU students to post items for sale or purchase. These are student-run communities, not official university platforms
