2015: Sell £1000

[Deleted User]

cw18. Things are looking great with your auction strategy. I bet you beat your £40 target (and then some). Good Luck:beer:

At least with the Bank Holiday on Monday you won't need to go rushing to the Post Office to get your parcels sent. I always end my auctions on a Sunday evening too and as most people tend to pay straight away by Paypal I'm up until all hours parcelling up and printing off packing slips etc. I make a point of mailing the stuff out on Monday (if buyers have already paid, which they usually have) so it can be a real rush. At least you'll have the extra day to get yours done. I wish I'd listed something myself that would end this weekend now:rotfl:

You'll no doubt get a better price by selling them yourself but the downside is that it could take ages before they sell.

Look on Amazon, for the titles that you want to sell and see how much they are going for secondhand. Study books can be in demand on there. Listing is a piece of cake, you only need to enter the ISBN for all the details to come up. Then you just add any condition comments, price, posting preferences etc and it's done. I make a lot of my extra income that way.

Good Luck:beer:

Thanks for the help, I will have a look.

I went listing crazy on ebay and gumtree last night and have sold an item for £10 which can be added to my total. I have lost count of my total though but think it might be nearly £600 - any chance of a reminder?

It would also be interesting to know what we have sold in total as challenge members. Spur us on a bit.

mumps - amazn do trade-in, also try fatbrain, webuybooks, z1ff1t. The last one are offering an extra 10% this weekend. I just have tabs open and copy and paste the barcode into each. At the end I leave each item in the one with the highest offer. Probably not a v efficient way of doing it, but it works for me!

Thanks for that, I will get some books off my daughter and see what I can do.

Please can I join? Am using eBay/gum/amazon as main way of attempting other challenges so need the inspiration of this one too! I'm at £80 with what I've already sold over the last month or so.

Just thinking that being half way through the year I should maybe stop being over ambitious and go for £500 rather than £1000!

Another £4 for me from gumt. Nearly at 300...

esbm - you are in for £500 - good luck! Samiszel will add you to her spreadsheet.
