  • I'd like to know as well please. My pending orders havn't shown up on my recent orders list until the 72 hours is up and then they've shown up as cancelled.

    Wahoo, sold a hardback Star Wars book for £8 today!

    Excellent seeing as I bought it for about 50p/£1 in a charity shop just for resale!

    Hi

    How long do you all keep your books for, hoping for them to sell.

    I have recently weeded my books out so that they all make me a minimum profit, bit some have been listed since I began selling on Amazon 10 months ago and not a sniff!!

    How long do you keep your books for before deciding they aren't going to sell?

    I just store mine until they sell really as every now and then I'll sell a very early listed one. However, I do ocassionally, when I have time, pick a few books out to check and if they have disappeared off the rankings or have gone down to 1p then i might discard them then.

    On the contrary, it has been quite for around 2wks. Have sold my first book for ages today though (a yoga book for £10.49 which I bought for 50pence in September).

    Doing quite well here, i think my sales for the chargeable period ending today are likely to be around the 52 books sold mark. Listing quite a few as well though, several dozen a week so my stock turns over quite well.
