selling your stuff on Amazon...part 2

Crispy_Ambulance

Thanks everyone! Will it cost me more to let him send it back to me marked recipient to pay than it would to send him a cheque for the postage?

BTW Crispy Ambulance is from a Half Man Half Biscuit song . . .

Crispy, I'd just refund him through amazon and take it on the chin and not expect it back (like Voodoo says)

Crispy_Ambulance

Thinking about it, you're right. He might as well keep it and have the refund as it is no good to anyone else either.

On another point, I have had 3 pending sales now which have come to nothing. Is this a common occurence - it is just a bit annoying as presumably no-one else can see the items while they are pending, and then they don't get sold.

apprentice_tycoon

crispy, just going back to the CD, is there any possiblity of finding the missing one?, if you know that it could be found eventually it alters things a bit.

Your 3 pending sales is also a bit unlucky, what did your horoscope say about this week? I wouldn't shell out on a lottery ticket at the moment .....

I don't know if anyone has noticed the naming and shaming has started on the swapit forum....

Welcome to the thread Crispy...I LOVE the name!!!!! Makes me feel quite boring

I haven't checked out the new improved RISI but it does sound like its a step in the right direction...its good to know they are responding to people's suggestions.

Everything is a bit slow at the mo...but just remember...ITS COSTING US NOTHING TO HAVE 'EM ON THERE!!!!!!!!!!! :T

Where is the Swapit forum AT???????

apprentice_tycoon

voodoo - it's on the front page...

edit - there's a link to all of the sites press cuttings, I haven't looked at them all but the one that caught my eye was Jeanette Winterson saying that this swapping lark is a good idea in principal but what was she supposed to live off? she likend it to music file sharing as well

voodoozoe

I've found it!!!!! Thought you meant on here ...well if its out of Soo's domain...peace and tranquility will remain on here

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.

No I live in York - must be a current occurance, such a shame.

I listed 3 audio books on tape and 1 on CD last night, listed 2 textbooks that were in near enough new condition and relisted a CD which is my first thing which hasn't sold.

Think I'll search the bookshelves again tonight and pop a few more books on - really need to make some money atm.
