    After reading this thread yesterday, I was determined to make a start and today I have listed 21 items, albeit mostly dvds, didnt realise that you could only do free postage and packing on these thoug, so that confused me a bit

    i have absoloutly millions of books to sell, but they dont seem to be selling on ebay, and i'm not registered with amazon.. ~ should i? do they sell on there? or are there any other websites you recommend?

    many thanks

    I kept putting off opening an Amazon account but now I wish I had done it sooner as you can list so many different things and its so quick and simple. Definately give it a try. Also have a look at Green Metropolis if you have a lot of fiction books

    I've listed about 12 books on Amazon and I've sold 5 already. I find it really easy to use and the fact they just stay on there until they get sold or your delete them is great.
    I've only got 7 things listed on eBay at the mo... but then that was my original target ie list an item a day so I'm quite happy with that. I got really flustered the other week when I had about 20 things which all sold on the same day.lol

    hi rictus, you are in the right place for help. Im not sure what items you are planning to list. I started off with a rowing machine as my very first sale - brave! since then which was only march this year - i have listed everything from kotex wings to lawn mowers and everything in between! just start with the first thing and it will go from there...
    good luck!
