Excellent:T

Some people still believe that 'You get what you pay for' - they just don't trust the 'cheap ones'.

Isn't it quiet or is it just me?
Weekends are usually good but only one sale yesterday.
I bet it's because I went Pro!!!!

BIG MOAN

Hi Annie

It's funny, I've often heard people say weekends are busy, they never have been for me. Mondays are usually my busy day, I put it down to people going back to work and having access to computers or maybe they had a book recommended to them over the weekend.

Fingers crossed your 'moan' will work - I've just sold a Mills and Boon to France :rotfl: (I think that now totals about 3 M&B sold in over 5000 book sales).

Happy selling FFM

Sold a biggie overnight £17 before fees and my second biggie this week.

Should I be worried though that the Government appear to be buying second hand books about terrorism and politics second hand from Amazon marketplace :eek:

Anyone got any suggestions about these books because Abe is such an undertaking to subscribe to

Nothing very constructive - they could be listed in the Amazon z-shops but the success rate in selling from there seems very low.

If Babbit are coming up on Bookfinder.com then I would have thought they would be just as likely to get a sale from there.

How about checking completed Ebay sales? Possibly worth a go listing them on Ebay, dealers etc do keep 'favourite searches' so they are notified if a particular title is listed.

Or, howabout sending a list through to Bloomsbury Auctions - they may spot if there are any 'little gems' lurking and they would then offer to sell in one of their auctions.

Woohoo - only relisted my stuff on Friday night and had a sale today! :j

It was a Haynes manual so it will be a pain to post (weighs about a kilo :eek:). Anyway, it's great to get some sales again. Good luck to everyone
