    After advice from this site, I have listed some of my books on Amazon. Heres hoping to some speedy sales.

    Although it seems quite expensive with the fees, it is so quick to list them. Already I have started going to the charity shops in my lunch rather than down to Tesco's.

    Fingers crossed for some sales, although I have only got 9 listed and 4 more to go on tonight.

    Wrong thread I know but I was so excited, although I should be working lol

    I have just looked at the second book .... you are actually cheaper buying new through amazon than buying used ! Due no doubt to, price reduction and free mailing.

    I would be careful listing that one at the mo!

    Was in a charity shop a few months ago and in a bit of a trance when faced with so many books thought 'ooh someone will buy that' and bought a book on the 'History of Anaesthesia through Postage Stamps'. Yes really - my thinking at the time was that it would fit 2 markets; philatelists and ??? anaesthetists :o - hadn't really thought it through about how niche this market might be :o

    However it sold yesterday for a decent profit and is off to Scandinavia. Had thought this book would be with me for a verrrrrry long time :D

    Have kept a look out for this one for ages as it always appears on the "buyer waiting" list, and it does usually sell for a good price.

    Sorry guys - where can I find this "buyer waiting" list? - :confused:
