## What is RakeScan?

Scan a barcode, get the answer in a second: BUY, REJECT, or BORDERLINE — with the market data and the why. RakeScan is a free book scouting app built for people who flip books: thrift store hunters, library sale regulars, estate sale diggers and full-time resellers.

THE VERDICT, NOT JUST NUMBERS
• Instant decision on every scan, driven by live sales rank, buy box and used price ladders
• A "WHY" trace on every verdict — see exactly which trigger fired
• Profit triggers you control: minimum profit, price drops, rank ceiling, and a rank-tier table for fine-grained rules
• Full market view: used & new offer ladders, FBA/FBM split

REJECTED? STILL GET PAID
Most scanners stop at "no." RakeScan checks every reject against BookToCash — a buyback service that has bought 100,000+ books since 2019 — and shows an instant cash offer with free shipping when there is one. Build a sell cart as you scan and ship it all in one box.

NEVER MISS A BOOK SALE
The built-in Sale Finder maps real sourcing opportunities near you:
• Library book sales (dates, hours, bag-sale days)
• Estate sales and online estate auctions
• Government & library surplus auctions — whole book lots
• Garage sales straight from city permit records
• Thrift stores, with book-richness hints
Filter by distance, date or category, see how far each sale is, add sales to your calendar with a day-before reminder, and let "Plan my day" order your stops.

SCAN WHOLE SHELVES AT ONCE
Point the camera at a shelf and Shelf Scan reads the spines, matches them against real buyback demand, and hands you a pull list — built for library sale tables and estate sale walls where scanning one by one is too slow.

BUILT FOR THE FIELD
• Works offline in dead zones — scans queue and resolve when you're back
• Bulk check: paste a list of ISBNs, triage them in one shot
• Bluetooth barcode scanner support
• Sound + vibration verdicts so you never look at the screen
• Dark, glare-friendly interface with big one-hand targets

FREE, WITH A STRAIGHT ANSWER
No subscription. No ads. Scan as much as you like. RakeScan is built by BookToCash — when we want to buy your rejects, that's the business model, in the open.

## Version history (last 2 releases)

### 1.7.47 — 2026-10-05

Your language, your voice.

RakeScan is now fully available in English, Spanish and Turkish — every verdict screen, every warning, every button — with dates written the way your language writes them. Pick a language when you install, or change it any time in Settings. In Turkish you can also read an ISBN out loud and the app will hear it.

BUY, REJECT and BORDERLINE stay in English: that is the trade's shared vocabulary and the words your market data uses.

Also in this update:
• A new, calmer look built for glare and one-handed use
• Type an ASIN, not just an ISBN — paste it, type it, or scan the Code-128 label
• The code you type is now visible above the keypad instead of hidden behind it
• The scan screen tells you when your own buying rules could not be loaded, instead of quietly using defaults
• If something goes wrong, a short technical report now reaches us: the kind of error and where in our code it happened. Never your scans, photos, location or the error text.

### 1.7.41 — 2026-09-29

No release notes.
