I have a set of World Book Dictionaries (24 volumes). The copyright is 1988. Is there any value for these?

Most old dictionaries, encyclopedias, etc., have very little value-a few dollars at most. You can check online for old book collectors, on Craigslist and other retail sites for possibilities. Everything is now online and updated constantly.

A lot of people see these on Ebay for $100 to $200 and get excited. But that's just the price they're listed at. That doesn't mean they actually sell for that. They don't.

Most old Encyclopedias, with the exception of something extremely rare, aren't worth the cost of shipping them to a buyer.
