Is anyone selling on amazon?

**Sara Noel** · 08-01-2004, 03:40 PM

or buying for that matter? (in their marketplace) I was curious on some feedback.

I have not tried it yet.

No, I didn't even know it existed. I'll have to check it out.

Hi,

I am new here but I have been selling on Amazon for 2 years. At first, the money was really good. Now it's a little over-saturated with sellers. But, I am still able to make a couple of extra bucks off of it.

I don't know if you can access my listings but here is the link I use. It will give you an idea of what I have listed and prices etc...

If you need any help selling, let me know. I've made most of the major mistakes already.

I do. I've managed to make a few dollars off Amazon and for decluttering and making a few dollars it works well. I've recommended it to alot of my friends and they've made alot more $$$ than me!

I just recently started selling and haven't been too successful. I did sell one book (it was large print) but others have just sort of expired without any interest. I haven't given up though!

I'm also testing out selling on Ebay although they charge a listing fee and not just a portion of the book price so you have to pay even if it doesn't get sold

I've sold a few things on Amazon. There's a lot of competion on Amazon so I haven't sold a lot lately. I like half.ebay.com better for buying and selling but they are going away in October.

I've been living under a rock and didn't know that.

I didn't know half.com was going away either.

Yes, they are going away in October. They were originally supposed to go away in July but they extended it for the people who wanted to buy and sell textbooks. I just wish they would leave things alone but they are wanting people to use ebay and the ebay stores. I liked half.com because you could leave things up there until they sold without having to pay a lot of fees. With ebay you have to pay insertion fees even if you don't sell the item. I purchased a lot of books off half.com very cheaply.

I am so glad I saw this thread. I have to get on half.com soon and get the rest of the books I need for dh! UGH I wish they would leave stuff alone too.
