Anyone sell Books on Ebay ?

[risingstar]

I have lots of books, mainly paperbacks, hardly know they have been read. Has anyone any experience of selling Books on ebay? Is it worth bundling authors/themes together? Any magic words to use to sell them?

sold some on amazon but they were law books so slightly different.

sorry not much more help!

I have sold small lots of recent chart paperbacks (5 at a time)Didn't get much money for them...but better than sitting on my shelf.Haven't had much luck with older books. The ones people recognise on the stands in bookshops tend to go.

Pregnancy/childbirth ones seem to go pretty well, and I've sold a couple Pratchett hardbacks in the runup to Christmas, but most others don't seem to sell.

I know it's not eBay but if you read a lot of books I use readitswapit.com to swap books.
Amazon for selling, sorry but the books I have tried selling have not done very well. If known authors they might do OK especially if it's a new release.

Parenting books go well, and my Mum made a mint with Wainwright walking books and old 1960s Formula 1 books.
I think the thing is, when even some charity shops are no longer accepting books as they take up too much space for not enough profit, there's not much hope on ebay.
I reckon the best thing to do is maybe a longer listing with a BIN price and just hope eventually someone picks it up.
