After quite a while resting on my more or less laurels (past listings) it's time to get a move on and put up some more listings. My goal is five books every day from now on. This should be achievable, but not according to my past performance.

These books get listed in three places: on Amazon, Biblio, and Half. Books without ISBNs (older books) generally will not be listed on half. My prices might vary between these three places. Amazon and Half tell me competing prices, so I peg mine on them. Thus, if the lowest price for Deadly Percheron is $98 on Amazon, I might peg mine at $95. If it weren't my only copy maybe I'd be more reasonable. In fact, I think my Biblio listing is more reasonable.

Going forward (and possibly backward), links to titles of books will send you to the main Amazon listing. My listing will be somewhere amidst the other maybe 237 listings. This is where my photo of the book can be seen, which will probably be a better one than the one Amazon features. Half doesn't let me attach my own photo—at least I don't think it does. Photos are also at biblio. Lots of older listings still don't have photos. Nor updated prices.

I've been lousy at selling direct via email. Sorry about that, if you've tried me. Listing through the major portals keeps me honest—also prompt and reliable.

End Notes:
  • I'd been under the impression that if books didn't sport isbns that I couldn't list them on half.com. Now I notice it's "If you know the ISBN..." Next time I have a non-isbn book, I'll see if I can't list in there. I do know that half.com listings won't show up on eBay searches (half is owned by eBay) except through isbn searches. But my half sales through eBay have been mighty miniscule of late.
  • I like the "acceptable" (worst) rating that Amazon and Half have. The books may be "poor" or "fair" but usually they are in very readable condition, and quite acceptable for that purpose. Which purpose agrees with me more than as a collectible. That said, however, fine copies are nicer to have.
  • As soon as I say "I'm on a roll" I go on a several-day hiatus. I enjoy cataloging books, even though it is not particularly remunerative—especially the current crop; so it shouldn't be something I have such trouble keeping at.

another box of books

Last post has my cataloguing of a box of books, nearly all paperbacks. I enjoy cataloguing paperbacks even though there weren't any real collector's items in there. I still enjoy them, especially the ones pre-ISBN. I was able to find listings already extant on Amazon for all of them, but I had to provide the cover photos for a few. Half.com is strictly ISBN, so older books are only listed on Amazon and biblio.
I've been very lazy about getting any cataloguing done for a long time, so I was pleased to be able to get a whole box done, especially one with a lot of books. Now I'm looking forward to diving into the next box.
It looks like a lot of these are ex-library hardcovers and trade pbs. The downtown Des Moines was trying to rid itself of books. Also CDs. I went a little bit hog wild, especially on the CDs.
So here we go (I'll be adding to the list below as we go along):

back to business?

Let's see how this goes. These are the books that happen to be sitting beside me at the moment. I'm listing them on amazon, half.com and biblio.com (with photo), but I will also list them here. I've been horrid at answering email inquiries, so I won't say to get in touch with me directly to buy them. You can try if you want, but like I say...
I'll try to keep at the cataloguing. I've been all too lax about doing any listing lately.
I'm not putting these in my moribund Google Documents catalog listings. Those are still posted but mainly for archival interest now. They are outdated and I haven't been deleting entries for sold books in quite some time.
I won't be adding much by way of describing what the book is about or its contents, since that kind of information can be easily had elsewhere on the Interwebs.
This here is one box. Next box/new post:
