Well done - I've yet to sell one this year but I'm hanging in there.miss_angie1 wrote:My GM drought is over. Just sold my first book of 2007. YAY!!!0 -
Have only sold one book on GM if I don't count the second one I forgot to de-list as I already sold it on Amazon

- better now at taking them off GM as was quite excited I'd sold a second one until I realised.........
Got about 45 listed on Gm, some are books with loads of Amazon listings, have been weighing them when it looks like the postage will be quite high but I wonder if high postage puts people off a £3 book? Oh well, just have to wait and see what happens.....0 -
Sold my first of this year too. That's another £3 to my tiny total. I haven't even reached £50 yet in 2 months, let alone 1!
Well done everyone else who have sold.

I agree about the mind body books. I sold those on Amazon very quickly at a good price, probably more than the £3 GM fee. However I have just had an email from Amazon today saying that some of my books are now past their 60 day listing, so I will try them on GM.
Can you include this DFWlurker in your GM challenge? I have listed gawd knows how many on there and am still waiting my first bite.
I will aim for the £50 challenge as I need it to help towards repaying my cahoot loan ASAP. The lovely people they are increased my rate from 6.9% to 14.9% in the space of 3 weeks!0 -
I discovered a pool of cr@ppy paperbacks in a cupboard in the office, which are dumped there by staff who don't want them any more. I might list the whole on GM and if one sells grab it from the pool. Sneaky, but no one will care/know."I have enough money to last me the rest of my life, unless I buy something."0
