    Really happy today.

    I sold 12 books from Saturday to todays post office journey. £15 £18 £20 £5 £4 and a hand full of little ones.

    These were all sold while my feedback was down to 96/97 %.

    Today I got Amazon to remove my negative feedback so I am back up to 100%. I haven't sold anything in the last 8 hours since they put my feedback back up!

    Hopefuly it will keep up. I have sold 54 books since turning pro merchant 24 days ago.

    Yeah! got my second feedback on amazon and got a 5 out of 5. So thats me now got two 5 out of 5 scores, brilliant !
    I asked 2 questions on the other thread so maybe you can help me here.
    I bough some books at an auction and some are really old about 1915- 1950's, should i just give them to a charity shop or is it worth trying to sell them ( some have name inscriptions on them ).
    Also I have a book which is HERE which jumps from one at £1.50 to £49.24- I cant understand the huge jump in price ?? seems strange.

    Thanks AT - I remember the half price offer, but I was just starting out then... I do keep hoping that they may have another one...

    I will find a tablecloth and try your suggestion tomorrow, thanks!!

    Have just stumbled across this on ebay -http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&ih=009&item=190003456922&rd=1&sspagename=STRK%3AMEWA%3AIT&rd=1 - wish I had the space, the nerve to purchase etc - saw it just before it ended but far too scary for me!! Could have used some of my redundancy money, but rather a lot to fork out all at once I guess. Was anyone from here the successful bidder?? Seller seems to check out looking at Amazon, and it would have meant that I wouldn't have had to go back to work (got a new job)!! Am so used to being off now that I don't know how I am going to fit work in!:rotfl:

    My ceiling would fall through if I tried to stash all those in my loft

    I put them on Ebay, as I have an Ebay shop.

    If they're selling for a lot, then it might be best to take them to a local bookshop (the independent second hand kind) and ask their advice

    Seem to be about £15 each so still ebay then or look up a specailist bookseller in yellow pages ? I couldnt imagine people paying about £15 for a old book on ebay- but maybe i am wrong as I dont know much.
    My other half was laughing at me earlier and saying I had bought a lot of junk.It would be great to prove him wrong.
    One other query if anyone can help, there were a lot of old 1970's kids annuals on sale and I remember somone mentioning them on here. I avoided them as I knew nothing about them but are they a good buy ?
