How to Sell Your Used Books?
Reselling your books on the Internet is a smart way to make room at home while making money!
Books have always been a big investment.
Once read, we keep them preciously to make the purchase profitable.
In fact, they're just gathering dust on our shelves. It certainly gives an intellectual or decorative side, but it's frankly unnecessary.
I am fond of the art of simplicity. Live with less to earn more!
How to do
I have been selling my second-hand books for 2 years now on specialized websites. Sometimes I earn 100 euros per month, and I cruising up to 50 euros on average.
What books to sell?
Classic paperbacks sell very poorly and very cheaply.
A good plan if you want to buy them but not if you want to sell them. You will gain more by reselling lesser-known or sought-after books.
From experience, some themes start faster than others: health, DIY, gardening, environment, art. The newer your books, the better your chances of attracting buyers.
Manual :
- Register on a specialized literature site: Amazon, Rakuten, Momox, Fnac ...
- Open their seller account (prepare your bank details);
- Sell your books (let the site guide you, it's very simple): 1 minute per book.
My sending advice
Send your used books by post in letter mode with the machines provided for this purpose, it is more profitable than the parcel.
On vacation, deactivate your store. I got fooled several times and the customers weren't very happy.
Savings made
Buying a book for 15 euros and reselling it for 10 euros means reading more cheaply. We all have books that have been lying dormant on our shelves for years. A good tip to make room at home and make ends meet.
Final tips:
Don't hesitate to cut your prices! Better to earn a little less but be sure to sell.
Don't lie about the condition of your book. One bad comment could hurt your small business.
