im unable to sell on ebay anymore, unknown to me my husband didnt pay the fees and the rest is history
have loads of bric a brac, but the bootsales are proving to be a lot of hard work for very little return
desperately want to start selling again via some sort of auction (ebid?) or perhaps amazon
have had a look at both and am wondering, does anyone actually sell anything on ebid - there seems to be a hell of a lot of sellers with 0 feeback, very few people viewing and small amt of items in each category - is it worth the hassle? is there another auction site i might be better off trying to sell through?
also looked at amazon, did a search on a few books i have to see what they might fetch only to find people selling them for 0.01p second hand .. persumably they make their money on the postage? i have loads of books as i used to commute, would be nice to make a little return on them - again, is it worth the hassle selling on amazon - do things actually go?
would appreciate feedback on either of the above, as my "extra income" options are pretty limited !

Hi, I sell cd's on Amazon and can make a profit. Books are pretty much a non-starter unless they are a limited edition/out of print.0
