I agree, there has clearly been an influx of book sellers. They are easy enough to spot. There are few, if any pictures. The description is not always detailed and the feedback ratings are sometimes not so good.
I am still selling books. I take lots of pictures and give accurate descriptions. I pack well and ship quickly. I’m not too worried about these new sellers. When someone buys from them, they get what they pay for.
If you can get deals as a buyer, I say go for it.
I wish I had the room, I’d stockpile all the old books I could get a hold of. One day, they’ll all be gone and the world will want to know where they all went.

02/02/2018 at 8:50 pm in reply to: ebay free shipping supplies: out of stock or discontinued? #31971I think the more important question is whether or not the coupons will be discontinued..
If more items fall off the list, I’d be looking to get what I can while it’s still available.
Good Luck…
02/01/2018 at 5:28 pm in reply to: Got a phone call from a customer – and fascinating panicky offer behavior! #31872I just got a call (went to voicemail) from a new buyer. She wants to buy some type of extended coverage on the item she bought. She was looking for a call back. I messaged her and referred her to Ebay. I was very polite and friendly..
Yes.. if you have business policies turned on it just takes a click or two.
I have two policies which involve Smartpost and I actually consolidated them now and have just one. Now it’s got Parcel Post instead of Smartpost. If this gets cleared up, I’ll just change back.
I took some key words out of the listing last night for just that reason. It’s still a cool hat on it’s own, from a local dealership.
Thanks
I just found a Subaru hat listed, with a Monster Logo on it… The enforcement of this stuff is so random.
I have had two Subaru hats listed for a long time. Noone has said a word.. yet.
I listed it for $79.99 on Auction… We’ll see what happens.

People buy on impulse and many don’t check Amazon. The Amazon listings typically don’t have pictures or very detailed information either.
01/31/2018 at 6:55 pm in reply to: Vintage Collectible Books: Price range is wild! What's up with that? #31733Yes, I saw the listing for free books. I’m still digging out of a bunch of books I bought months ago. I’m surprised they went that fast.
I’ve got over 300 listings for books in my Ebay store. I’ve got about 100 waiting to get donated and a bunch more to sort through.
01/31/2018 at 6:43 pm in reply to: Vintage Collectible Books: Price range is wild! What's up with that? #31730I sell a fair amount of vintage and collectible books of all types. I’ve probably got about 300 for sale at any one time.
Like anything else, it’s about supply and demand. When in doubt you can list it high and see what happens, but as a rule, the “sold” results are what really matters.
If there are others available, much cheaper, it’s probably listed high, because the seller is out of stock and doesn’t want to take down the listing. This happens a lot on Amazon.
Good Luck.
In my research I’m finding what look like modern (new), much smaller cans of Pactra that also say Testors. I’m guessing at some time there may have been a merger or takeover. Were you buying the small bottles or cans.. Thanks.
Great.. Thanks.
I appreciate the response,
I suspected ground, but the labeling and packaging is what I really wondered about.
Standard ground basically means Parcel Select?
Also does the absorbent material go inside the Ziplock bag. Can it be as simple as paper towels or is there some type of standard.
I bought one of those vintage cans of spray paint over the weekend and I want to ship it properly.
Thank you Mike.
the listing is gone now… maybe somebody got a deal… We’ll probably never know.
