    Amazon sales are on fire lately, I listed two items last night and they've both sold already!

    Gemmz, that is pretty good going - I am pretty happy to have sold one - and it may well motivate me to get some books out of the loft over the next few days!!

    It is the easiest thing in the world!! Just open a sellers account, enter an ISIN number of a book or dvd or whatever, and it will tell you what others are being sold and for how much etc.

    Then you enter in how much you want to sell your item for - then Amazon tell you how much you will get after postage credit and their fees etc. If you are happy with that figure, you submit!

    The good thing is that it stays on sale for 60 days unless it either sells or you withdraw, and if it doesn't sell, you pay no listing fee etc.

    So, I reckon it is a good thing - no risk and no need to constantly re-list if it is slow to sell!

    I have only ever done books, cds and DVDs but I think you can do other stuff too!

    Think it's most stuff that they sell. Except electronics - I think you need to be a shop for that

    And you only have to do it once because even when they expire (after the 60 days), it still saves them as an inventory so a re-list is a single click

    I know - excellent isn't it. Really good for lazy disorganised people like me!

    Right, now I am tired. And that little thing called WORK beckons again tomorrow!

    So, thank you all for your company and virtual kicks up the backside today. I have made progress (although my list may give a different impression) and I am very pleased with that.

    Sleep well everyone!!
