I just set up all of my books for sale on half.ebay.com and am waiting for them to be sold. How long should I wait before I change the price I am selling for? How do I know when it is sold? How often should I check it?

I literally just made this account and haven’t sold anything yet. Do you think someone would buy from an account that has a 0 next to it?

It will be mostly textbooks and maybe 10 of them or so. I do Not want to make this an ongoing business of mine. I want it to be as quick and easy on me as I will be preparing for classes myself and want to prepare these sales now. And of course I want to make as much money as I can since this will much of fund my textbook needs as well.

Thanks!

How do you know if it is worth your while? I have a bunch of old textbooks, how-to books, and other non fiction books that I want to get rid of. What sells best online? Can you search completed sales for books like you can on ebay?

I have 2 days left for a textbook (3 days sale) and I already have 50 views. Is this a good sign? Although I have no bids yet.
Or do views mean nothing? (in terms of number)

I have several text books I’ve used within the last few semesters. Most of them I bought brand new but the next semester they required a different text. Now I’m stuck with all sorts of text books on various subjects and was wondering if it was worth my time to put them as a bundle on ebay. I know some people buy them at garage sales and thought someone might want them for a library or just to practice or read info from.

I bought the book new for an RRP of $70 a few months ago. I hardly used it. I had no idea about the sale otherwise I would have told the person who won the auction. I feel so guilty! Should I refund $25? HELP?

I put my textbook for sale on ebay and I received a message from someone who wanted to buy it immediately (since they needed it for school). How do I remove that item for sale? Or how do I just give that item to my buyer? There are still 4 days left of bidding.
