Well done Sara and Tweek - great sales! I'm inspired to go hunting through library sales and charity shops

I've had my first Amazon payment into my account today as it's a fortnight since I listed my first lot of books YAY :j

It's all very exciting this making extra money I've had three 5 star ratings as well, which really pleases me. I've found that I really like the whole idea of having customers and of providing a good service.

Maybe I'm a budding entrepreneur :cool:

Good luck everyone

You could always list it on www.readitswapit.co.uk and try to swap it for a more saleable book. :cool:

I've got over 900 books listed and out of curiosity I'd like to know the total selling value of them all - is there something you can click to give the total?

As far as Im aware the only way you can do it is to download the open items report then export the list into Excel and do a column total for the price.

If you need more detail just let me know.

Thanks Amazombie but it seems a bit too techno for me, it was just a moment of curiosity.

Its not that hard to do as long as you're pro-merchant and you have excel.

OK - I'm a pro merchant and I've got excel - talk me through it please Amazombie...

I haven't done this for a while, but it's worth doing as a back up. Just incase your account is hacked and then frozen or your listings deleted. Who's feeling optimistic today then :rotfl:

The thought of relisting my 4000+ books again all individually would probably make me put them on Ebay as a job lot.

So, thank you AT and Amazombie - you have spurred me into action and I have just ordered my 'Open Listings Report'.
