Why not become an marketplace seller on Amazon. Let's face it, 99% of people thinking about buying books will goto a Amazon, so you're spared the problem of building a brands and getting placed in Google.

"if you're a real pro

If you find yourself selling quite a number of books per month you may want to consider taking out Pro Merchant subscription, this means that the 86 pence standard fee is waived and you never have to relist a book again - well not for 3 years at any rate, the monthly fee is £28.75 so if you can sell over 33 items you're up on the deal. You can cancel at anytime and only be billed for that current month.
