Dawn, the one in the 2nd post was the one that I bought. I believe they have gone down in price since I bought mine. The ebay one your link goes to looks as if it would work (according to their description) - but I'm also not technically minded so wouldn't really know.

Maybe someone a little more techy might be able to answer.

Hi Dawn,

am sorry don't use a scanner myself so can't help. I'd suggest asking about scanners over on the seller connection on the Amazon website. I know there have been discussions about them before and more folk over there use scanners I suspect so you will get the advice you want more easily.

I've listed some rare classical music CDs, where I'm the only seller on the Marketplace, with delivery to UK, Europe and USA. Now had an enquiry from Japan.

I assume if I change the shipping to Worldwide, someone in Japan can buy via the Marketplace so everything is on Amazon's system?

What's my best bet for postage with proof of delivery and compensation? I've put a price of £50 on the CD.

hi - just wondering if anyone can help me pls?
I am pro seller and noticed yesterday that a CD I was selling had showed up in my closed listings - but not in my order page. My copy of the Cd was the only for sale.

I am confused on this one.!

Christina, is the quantity in your closed listings showing as zero? If so, that would suggest it was sold - so I have no idea why it is not on your 'orders' page. However, if the quantity is showing as '1' that would suggest the listing has been closed - manually by you/Amazon or automatically (not usual for pro's though).

I think Amazon marketplace is available to Japan - I know Malta cannot buy from marketplace.

I always get confused on overseas post and which is best - I think it is Airsure.

The quantity is showing as one. I havent closed it and as I am pro seller I dont understand why Amazon would close it
