    I will be listing books when I get back to it - where is the best place to sell books?

    It depends what type of books really LHB:

    I tend to use Green Met for fiction, only make about £1.15 on each one after postage but its better than nothing

    Non fiction - Amazon is good for more unusual ones, especially text books

    I've not sold any on ebay recently because you can only put £2.75 max postage charge

    grrr im listing my games and dvds like a crazy person, but i keep getting the authentic warning message up. im listing my sons old games so they are genuine - is it ok to just ignore them and keep listing? i dont want to be barred or something. what does anyone think?

    As long as you make it clear in the listing that the booklet isn't included you should be ok. I've recently sold a few ps1 games and just stated that the instructions had been lost so were not included. Feedback all came back ok.

    Thats no problem at all, just a formality from ebay to make sure you are selling real DVDs and not copies. Ignore it and carry on listing

    Thanks Jesarose I'll probably use Amazon and Greenmet. I have an entire bookcase stuffed full in the garage!!!
    It feels really wierd - have put Amazon sellers account in holiday mode. Just too busy over the next month.

    That pesky French doll nightmare woman came back to haunt me. I emailed her when she left her neutral saying that I would giver her a full refund on return since she said the box was crushed (I sold doll for 99p - she is currently listing it for 25 euros).
    She changed her feedback on my communication dsr's to from 5 to 1 (it went really low and red on the dashboard, but its only today when it went over 30 days that I could prove it was her:mad: ( I get very paranoid about my dsr's)

    I really really hope it never sells for her. There, I feel very petty, but it feels so goooood:j:j

    I have 111 on my main private account, 8 on another private account and 33 on my Business Account so that makes 152 so far, will try and see how many more I can get done later, might just get some onto Turbolister for tomorrow. I only have today and tomorrow to list for 5 and 7 days as I'm going away a week on Wednesday for a week, will relist anything that finishes at the weekend onwards before I go so that they finish the day after I come back.
