    Thanks Emma.

    Soo

    EDIT: SOrry, but following the link it appears to be ebay.com only. That's a shame as I had plans for a free one months trial..I may have been able to shift some of those books at long last.

    imagine my horror when i disovered this thread had slipped to the second page of this forum :eek:

    so how's it going for everyone? not much sales here for the last two days but i'm going to a boot sale tomorrow i think so hopefully i'll grab some bargains

    i could do with some new stock

    also they offers on read it swap it are still slowly coming in, and i've managed to trade off a few books i thought i'd NEVER get rid of so i took the best of what i could get because who knows if anyone would want those again :rotfl:

  • I'm afraid I haven't read all 97 pages of this so please forgive me if this has already been covered.

    I have now sold about 5 items through Amazon and love it - getting much better prices for certain things than I would on eBay - and it is so easy! But I've yet to have anyone leave feedback for me. Is this normal? Do Amazon buyers have the same awareness of feedback as eBay users? I've posted everything within 24 hours and can't see that there will have been a problem with the items just no feedback.

    At the moment I am still a "New seller" and it doesn't seem to be stopping people buying but I would like to start building up some feedback! Any suggestions? Should I email them all reminders or is that more likely to annoy them?!
    Thanks

    Is anyone selling at the moment? My sales have dried up. I haven't had a sale since Weds. Just wondered if there was a problem with Amazon.

    Sales still very slow here. Received two swaps today which were both in appalling condition and fit only for the bin!
    I went to an auction today. Didn't buy any books, but the BBC were filming FlogIt there, which was quite interesting. Picked up a few books in a charity shop, but nothing which looks like it will make my fortune. Don't think I'll be giving up the day job just yet.

    The last two weeks before this one I sold abut 15 items each week, but this last one just 4 items - very quiet and dull.
