All Business Monday--Half.com

I'm sure that most of you are familiar with half.com.  It's an ebay company and a website where you can sell books,textbooks,movies, music, and games. 

I currently have 88 books in my half.com store.

I enjoy half.com.  It's easy to list there.  You simply put in the ISBN or UPC number and it will take you to the item.  You choose the condition, make some comments about it and add a short description.  They even give you a suggested selling price (which I always go under).

Not all books and such are on the website though.  If something you want to list isn't on the site, you can fill out a form asking them to add it.  I've actually done that several times but haven't gone back to check it if was added or not.

The one thing that I don't like about half.com is that when you sell a book, you have to print your shipping right away from paypal.  That part would be fine with me, except they don't pay you with paypal.  They pay you through your checking account and they pay out on the 1st and the 15th of the month.  If I don't have enough in my paypal when an order comes in, this puts me into a little bind.

I used to list at least one new book each week, and I also always sold at least 2 books a month.  I've not been listing lately because....well....I've not been reading like I should!  I also haven't hit any garage sales this past season either.   I plan to work on this in 2015!

Here are just a few of the 88 books you will find in my shop:

Each of those will open a new window to my half.com shop, but you will also find it HERE.

  1. I'm rough on books. If I buy one to read it usually isn't resellable. Specially paperback.

  2. Rarely do I part with my books! It is a great way to make a few book bucks though!
