    I only sell my own stuff really so the cassettes were just 80s music. From memory, the ones that sold abroad were Wet Wet Wet (!) Transvision Vision and another similar group. All were bought by US buyers for some reason. :confused:

    Thanks Jo, I've got loads of cassettes from my pre-cd days so might give them a go and see what happens.

    Hi Teedy, I do list some books on both at the same time BUT you do have to remember to delist ASAP from the other if you sell on one. I forgot one time and had to cancel a sale on GM 'cos the book had gone on Amazon - lesson learned!
    I do seem to remember a couple of folks saying they sold a book first on one site then before they saw the email, it also sold on the other site but the odds of that are pretty small i reckon. - Goes off to check she has removed books sold on Amazon from GM listings :o

    Hi all, Have been reading all the comments before I start trying to sell my books on Amazon. What does it mean for the seller when under a book for sale on the site it says that the book is eligible for free delivery?

    Thanks.

    Only if they buy it from Amazon, not if they buy from Marketplace. Occasionally this does confuse some buyers and they try to buy bucket loads of 1p books and hope for free delivery.

    Hi all, picked up some books this weekend, most of them are real duds :rolleyes: so will be going back to the charity shops. One of them might be some good though, the only other copy listed is for £154 from an American seller, obviously I'm not expecting it to go for anywhere near that but what would be a reasonable price to put in on for, without underselling?

    Ta very much:D
