I have some professional textbooks that have some value, figured I would try to liquidate them , can not stomach listing on 'that auction site'.....
I am interested in your experience....
also, curious as to why they are asking for my credit card # to sell things when I am not a credit card merchant/vendor ? |

My one qualm is that because all payments go through amazon and then into your account, it usually takes a week or two before you get the cash.

|  | Gettin' medieval on yo' bass... | | Join Date: Jan 2010 Location: new hampshire | | | I've been selling off some of my old books on Amazon for a few months now, and it works quite well. You get emailed when someone orders your stuff, you have 2 days to ship it, confirm the shipment and every two weeks they deposit whatever money you've made to your account. One nice bonus; they charge $3.99 for standard shipping on books; I've found that unless it's a big heavy book, sending it media mail domestically with a delivery confirmation comes in around $3.25-3.50, so there's a couple quarters bonus.
If you're going on vacation, though, you have to deactivate your listings, and reactivating them when you get back is a little tedious.
