  • Hi debsley - the best place to start looking is hereand click the link taking you through to the 'manual'.

    Regarding feedback - I don't think that zero feedback is as important on amazon as it is on ebay.

    ack ack ack - plus finances are so tight, that im not sure i can afford to send my parcels out until the amazon money clears

    Trouble is with Amazon you must get the items out quickly, it's not like ebay where you can delay a couple of days.

    **BG NOTE**

    Sorry for any confusion but I have merged a new thread with the existing Amazon thread.

    I went to put some paper in the recycling banks at my local tescos on Saturday (we live in a flat and so don't get out recycling collected from where we live :mad: ) and the Oxfam book bank was overflowing - the flap was wedged open and you could see all the books in it and they weren't in bags :mad: :mad:

    Makes me so mad as the books will probably be ruined when the bank gets emptied, wonder if it's really worth Oxfam's while having these in car parks.

    Know this is a bit off topic but with all the posts about caring for books, wanting to pass them on to a good home etc I thought I'd share this.

    All quiet on the Amazon front for me have a couple of audiobooks/cds which I don't listen to and think I might list them and some more Uni books later - well done to everyone with their successful sales recently :T

  • Yorkielass, Do you live in South west London? There is an Oxfarm Bin near where i live that gets over full. I recycle paper about 1 a week and about every second time i go there i take my phone with me and call the number on the front of the Oxfarm bin to report it is full. It breaks my heart to see good books get damaged.
  • i scraped enough cash together to get my amazon parcels sent, plus a few smaller ebay items

    i always feel soo much better when they have gone

    How do you find out about auctions to go to please (and whether they are any good), and where on earth do you keep getting all the free books from?? V envious!!

    Bella - for auctions try HERE or also HERE ...I guess it all depends where you live!!!!! And how far you are prepared to travel!!!

    FREE BOOKS - I have got some from https://www.free2collect.co.uk, some from responding to ads in freecycle(I am close to four different areas so do 'em all) and believe it or not I put my OWN ad in the freecycle saying I would take away people's unwanted books and got a response from this too. :D

    Have had a good response from shuffling my books on RISI too!!!

    Still awaiting the outcome of this bank transfer!!!! :eek:

    Does anyone have any first hand experience with selling books with a religious theme on Amazon? One of my local charity shops has loads, in good condition, but I just have no idea whether they would sell.
