Does anyone know what a fep is? As in:

Ex-Library, fep's removed, usual stamps, stickers. Very clean and tidy throughout. Fast dispatch from UK

I think it is Front End Pages, so for this book it is probably where they have torn out the page that gets stamped when the book is loaned.

I am glad that's all. 'Feps removed' sounds so painful. My eyes were watering!

There was a big article on RISI in one of the papers this morning (either the Times or the Guardian I think). That will probably mean lots of new people joining and a fresh lot of books becoming available.

Just wondering whether DVDs sell better than videos? Anyone got any theories? Also which ones are the ones to look out for?

I have some of both listed, I have sold no DVD's but 12 videos (3x £1.81, £2.11, £2.21, £3.03, £3.05, £4.99, £5.00, £5.74, £9.00 & £9.99)

Ok, another question: I actually made a smallish amount on the romance novel mentioned above, and think it might be worthwhile listing a few more if I can pick them up fairly cheaply. Unfortunately I very rarely see them in charity shops. Anyone know where you can find them? Car boot sales?

Hi !!

Hope everyone is ok. I seem to be having a bit of a "dryspell" at the moment regarding selling

I have 1 or 2 videos listed but no DVD's. Te videos are limited ones and have only been on for about 2 weeks.

Hi Tashja
Have a good moan it usually helps. Sold two yesterday but none so far today. Managed to pick up 15 books from a fete yesterday paid about £2 for the lot and one listed at over £20 and a couple at £6-7 so was happy with that. Then found a DVD of the kids that they don't watch any longer it was Snow White (Disney) at nearly fell off chair when it listed for £47. Hope it picks up for you. Keep smiling

I sold one to a university this week and another to a school - is this common?

I had one sell to someone at The University Of Cambridge, except their address was wrong! Obviously, people at Cambridge are not that intelligent.
