That's how I buy a lot of my books currently (estate sales, library clearance, etc) but regarding the sliced pages: I have a very large personal library that can't be damaged or marked up for a variety of reasons. It just so happens that I have three uses for well-sliced pages of (preferably) interesting books: for sculpture, for rebinding practice (what better source for testing out different glue mixtures or techniques), and lastly to spiral bind a few into markable workbooks (I used to do this with tattered textbooks and then give them away). I can't really go into it from my phone, but suffice to say I have a soft spot for recycling old books and see it as a possible opportunity to find a non-standard selection. Edit: Also, if someone is just throwing them out that saves me money and therefor time trying to decide what to take.
