I was wondering what everyone else did with their 11+ study books/papers after the exam (those of you that didn't burn them of course!). I was going to sell them on ebay but wonder if this is the best/most time/cost effective way of doing it. Would be nice to put some cash towards a treat

Don't worry innocent mistakes do happen.Sometimes better to take them on the chin.
A number of people on another thread did have a bonfire.
But we had a 20 year collection and has been passed on to the next in line in the extended family with the new books specifically for the Durham CEM exam.

We're on number 3 now, she's been allowed to actually fill in the books!
Now as we finish a book/paper it goes straight in the recycling.
A few books without exercises in will be passed to a friend.
If it doesn't bring joy it's gone. New house rule.

I'm in awe of you folks doing it 3 times. Two was absolutely plenty and certainly not a process I shall miss!
