what is this list you're talking about and is it possible to get a copy of it please

Hi black pudding.

The list that's mentioned is the list of books that Amazon customers have pre-ordered, it's only available to Pro-merchant sellers, the thing is I'm a pro seller but when I go to the page that the link is on I get a message saying that I can't see it, I tried a couple of times, then I contacted the Amazon message board but still didn't find a way in so I gave up.

Our Katchambers has access to the list and offered to send it to anyone that asked her - it's 23,000 items long and makes your head hurt to read it......

Now I know why it didn't work for me this time then - the book God sent the sale to the wrong address. Never mind can you moan for me please.
Happy amazoning!!:p

well my karma cant be completetely gone - i too have sold a book, shame it was a 1p one :rotfl: and i guess after postage costs, i may even be out of pocket as it was one of the first i ever listed so was getting into the swing of it all

well lesson learnt - must go through and check everything isnt undervalued postagewise

but again thanks to whoever listens to us moaning about no sales

Picked up a book at a charity shop for 50p yesterday, read it and sold it for over £4 today.

It's a book that I'd looked at buying myself so I knew that it would definitely sell and be worth more than a penny. :cool:

That always happens to me. I should read them first. Have sold three copies of the Bookseller of Kabul, two of Reading Lolita in Teheran, and two of the Kite Runner. I find stories of the middle east etc. sell quickly. Good!

I had a sort through of my own books the other day and listed about 10, one of them was Delia Smiths Summer Collection, the dust jacket had been damaged so badly that it had been thrown away years ago (something to do with the cats or kids I think) I thought that I'd let it go because I had another copy in perfect condition to keep for myself - I listed it at a knock down price because of the missing DJ and sold it this morning.

Then I remembered it was the Delia Smith Winter Collection book that I have 2 copies of.....:o

I wrapped it up after looking at all the lovely photos of all the recipes that I'd been meaning to make but never got around to - there wasn't an audible sob but the woman that recieves it had better enjoy making them....

Since we are talking about Karma, I made a profit of about £1.50 on the book so it would be very Karmic if I found a replacement at the boot sale tomorrow for the same amount of money (are you listening there?......it's a sort of whinge)

Hi Kat,
Nice to see you back. Since you sent me the list, I have become a pro merchant myself. Can you tell me how to get to the list from my Amazon account, at the moment I just refer to your link and get fresh details.

Hi matt, nice to see that I was missed!!!

Congratulations on becoming a pro-merchant, that is very good news, I hope that you continue to sell well so that you can keep the subscription up. I am also happy to hear that you have found something on the list. I have found quite a few now - mostly from ebay and am just waiting for them to be delivered from the US.

I am afraid I don't know how to go to the lists directly from your account, I just found that link in one of the amazon discussion boards and I just use that everytime. I have had a look around but I can't see how to get to it, amazon certainly don't advertise it!

Glad you found out how to search in excel - ctrl + f
it works in all applications including the internet, comes in useful sometimes.
