Although currently now inmy own school there are avenues to buy/trade old textbooks, don't tink i've come across any that offers an auction service yet.
It may be a good idea because thru auctions, both the seller and buyer will benefit.
Sellers can fetch the best price for his books/notes while only those buyers who are really keen and willing to pay for the text will get the text. sometg like Maximising economics surpluses (a term i learnt in my economics calss)??!
In addition "the key to this transaction is dot-edu; it only works for students, faculty and university staff" .. hence it ensures only legitimate sellers can post items for sale while only genuine buyers will bid for them.
maybe after my exams this sem, i may explore the possibility of settin up an exclusive auction sites and monitor the interest/popularity of such a service?
